Annotation
This is a German-language degree programme with study components in the compulsory subject areas of German Linguistics, Older German Literature and Modern German Literature. The focus of all programme content is the concept of mediality. The degree programme does not simply provide a purely technical education, which is the main focus and which enables students to work academically in German Studies and related fields beyond the Master's degree and gain further qualifications. Rather, in the form of a practical module related to specific professional fields of application, it also includes a compulsory component of the course in which, accompanied by scientific reflection and evaluation, experience is acquired in a professional field typical for German studies specialists.
Admission modus
Without admission restriction
Admission requirements
A degree in German Studies (usually a Bachelor's degree or comparable, with at least 180 CP) with an overall grade of at least "good" (2.5). Applicants with related degrees (e.g. Communication or Media Studies) may also be admitted on request.
Applicants who do not have a German higher education entrance qualification and/or have not obtained their first professional qualification from a German-language degree course at a German institution of higher education must also provide evidence of very good proficiency in German at level C2 (CEFR).
