Electives
When assessing the different majors against each other, you should also bear in mind that you can choose electives that enrich your school year. For example, if you choose a program without a strong focus on ski mountaineering, you can - if you wish - choose the ski mountaineering elective. In this way, you can use the electives to immerse yourself even more in what you already get a lot of on the major, or use it to create variation in everyday school life.
