What is the structure of a bachelor’s study program?

The structure of BA study programs differs depending on the subject or the chosen combination of subjects, respectively. Until your graduation, you have to acquire 180 credit points (CP) in total. The distribution of these points depends on the study model of your program.

Someone who pursues a combi bachelor has a Kernfach - major subject- of 90 credit points and, in addition to that, a Modulangebot -minor subject- of 60 CP or two smaller separate minor subjects of 30 CP each.

Affine Bereiche -related areas or related modules- can be part of a mono bachelor. They refer to modules of other subjects that are usually related content-wise to your major subject and are an addition to your academic profile. If you pursue a mono bachelor, look at your study and examination regulations to see whether related modules are required.

A 30 CP component for professional training is an obligatory part of all BA study programs; there are two versions:

General professional skills courses (ABV)

The study area general professional skills (ABV) includes a mandatory internship and modules from the following skill areas. Your subject’s study and examination regulations will tell you which modules you can take.

Teaching-related professional courses (LBW)

Teaching-related professional courses (LBW) introduce students to elementary questions in the field of education. Students are supposed to get to know school as a professional place and learn how to reflect on their practical experiences guided by the theoretical knowledge they have acquired at university.

Students pursuing a BA degree program whose subject combination would make them eligible for a Master of Education should choose LBW if they want to keep the Master of Education as a possible future option. All others study the general professional skills courses (ABV).
