Structure of the Study Programme

The subject study programme (for more information, visit the German website) consists of four module groups with different objectives, fundamentals, in-depth studies / advanced modules, profiling and Master's thesis with a topic and professor of your choice.

In the first study section, students take eight or nine from a total of 15 basic modules. These modules are intended to supplement existing knowledge in order to create a foundation for subsequent deepening and application.

In the next section, electives are taken in three in-depth modules (out of eight possible) and three consecutive profiling (specialisation) modules (depending on previous choices for advanced module), which allow students to choose between several subject fields in which they can acquire in-depth knowledge, in-depth assessment skills and practical and applied competence while developing their own research approaches.
