Programme structure

In the first two semesters, you will study in your dream program of social work in the classic full-time study model and your lectures will take place regularly during the week. From the 3rd semester on, your studies will still take place in the full-time study model, but then in a block structure that is typical for our university. In concrete terms, this means that your attendance times will then take place compactly, in 6 blocks per semester and thus 4-5 attendance days per month.

Due to our flexible study model, our course of studies is equally interesting for those who are already working as well as for those who are still at the very beginning of their professional career. Practitioners who are already working and who have completed vocational training in a related field can shorten their studies to 2 years (4 semesters) and thus only enter the 3rd semester and remain active in practice. Career starters who are still at the very beginning of their professional career can gain experience in several internships from the 3rd semester at the latest due to the practice-integrating form of study. Thus, state recognition is granted at the end of the study program, which makes graduates even more attractive for the subsequent job market.

If you already have relevant work experience in this field, you can shorten your studies to 2 years / 4 semesters. You will then enter directly into the 3rd semester. We would be happy to check this possibility at any time on the basis of your application documents. Please do not hesitate to contact us.
