BA Natural and Technical Science (Teaching Qualification) at University of Stuttgart

University of Stuttgart, Germany

Programme overview

Technology enables mobility, communication, and innovation. At the same time, with regard to climate change, the future of energy supply, and the global digitalisation process, it confronts us with societal challenges. A networked education in the natural and engineering sciences is therefore important in order to understand how technology works, how it is used, and what risks it entails.

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

What you will study

The NwT study programme is interdisciplinary, and you receive foundational training in the natural and engineering sciences. The focus here is, on the one hand, on causal questions in the natural sciences: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. This includes acquiring knowledge through scientific methods such as observation and experimentation.

Career pathways

The fields of work for NwT teachers are primarily within general education high schools (Gymnasien) in Baden-Württemberg. Some graduates have also chosen to pursue careers in research, industry, or business. Thanks to the interdisciplinary training in natural and technical sciences, a wide range of career opportunities is also available in this field.
