University of Stuttgart, Germany

Programme overview

The fascination of mathematics lies in its abstract, logical structure, the universality of its methods, and the wide range of its applications. As a mathematics teacher, you want to share your enthusiasm with your students. By studying the Mathematics Teaching Qualification, you will acquire not only subject-specific didactic and educational knowledge but also a broad foundation in various areas of mathematics.

Duration: 6 semesters (3 years)  |  Study mode: full-time, German-taught  |  Intake: Winter semester  |  Location: Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg, Germany

What you will study

In the first three semesters, you will learn the fundamentals of mathematics. Unlike in school, not only numeracy skills are important. The applicable rules of calculation and their properties are derived from fundamental assumptions, known as axioms, and are rigorously formulated and proven through definitions and theorems.

Career pathways

Most of our graduates work as secondary school teachers after completing their studies. However, graduates with a teaching degree are also in demand in the business sector. Mathematicians are highly sought after in numerous industries because they are highly versatile, due to their ability to think abstractly and work in a structured and precise manner.
