What you will study

While students in the bachelor's degree program focus on gaining subject-specific knowledge, the Master of Education degree program puts a stronger emphasis on educational sciences and subject didactics. In these modules, students tackle current topics related to teaching at schools. They learn to use teacher-directed and student-led experiments in class and explore specific questions that are important for work at schools.
