Agreed expenses for project materials can be refunded in full or in part, in consultation with the lecturers and based on the project budget.
In general, the students have to pay for small expenses themselves. This includes glue, office products, paints, sprays, etc.. However, extensive laser usage, external expenses and workshop material expenses are reimbursed.
All expenses are collected using the "IAD Reimbursement Sheet" and signed by the course tutor for validation. Then the reimbursement can be requested using the form with the administrative secretary.
Reimbursement Process
The following chart visualizes the reimbursement process:
External Expenses
These are expenses that are paid with a credit card (never use cash) in external shops or the ZHdK shop at the Toni-Areal. You can reclaim external expenses with the administrative assistant by showing the receipts that are signed by the tutor. The money is either transferred to the MoniToni account or reclaimed using a form at the ZHdK cashier.
Laser Costs
Laser costs can also be reimbursed. For that the students needs to present a printed out screenshot of the account statements that has been signed by the tutor. The money is transfered to the MoniToni account.
Workshop Materials
Construction materials can be purchased in the workshops. For this purpose, the students should carry a so-called Milchbüchlein (pre-printed forms), where they can note all material costs. The material prices are detailed in each workshop as well as on the website. At the end of the course the Milchbüchlein must be signed and stamped by the workshop manager. The workshop manager will then debit the students MoniToni account. The stamped form must be signed by the tutor in order to be valid for reimbursement. Afterwards, the money can be reclaimed with the administrative assistant and is transffered back to the students MoniToni Account.
Other Expenses
Conference and festival support
We encourage students to present their work in local and international conferences and festivals. Each student can apply for a support to attend such event for up to 100 CHF per year to spend either for travel, lodging, entry fees or materials.
