Degree programmes and subjects at the German Department

The German Department offers teacher-training modules (subjects) at Bachelor’s or Master’s level. Master’s students training to be teachers can also gain an additional qualification by choosing a second or third teaching subject. Two specialist Master’s programmes complement the department’s range of courses.

The Master’s programme in Modern German Literature is characterised by the fact that, from the outset, it promotes both practical relevance and personal interest through research colloquia, placements and self-organised working groups. The interdisciplinary specialist Master’s programme in German and English Linguistics is a bilingual programme that combines, among other things, a focus on the history of language, linguistic theory and language use. It is offered in collaboration with the Department of English.
