Course description
Students aiming to become secondary school teachers follow a structured path involving both a Bachelor of Arts/Science and a Master of Education. First, they must complete a 2-subject Bachelor's degree course. Afterward, they can apply for the Master's program "Teaching Qualification for Grammar Schools," which focuses on preparing them for the teaching profession. This Master's degree is essential for entering the traineeship phase. The Bachelor's program spans six semesters, while the Master's program lasts four semesters. During the Bachelor's course, students need to earn 180 credit points (CP). These points are distributed across two subjects (126 CP), the core curriculum for teacher training (26 CP), internships (16 CP), and the Bachelor's thesis (12 CP). This tiered study structure ensures that students are well-prepared for their future roles as secondary school teachers. The Bachelor's degree lays the foundational knowledge, while the Master's degree hones their teaching skills, making them ready for the classroom.
