Vocational Education Agriculture (B.Ed.)

The studies provide training for those wishing to teach at vocational schools. Bachelor students acquire the necessary didactic and pedagogical specialist knowledge for entry to the Masters course. A Masters degree in Vocational Education is a prerequisite for commencing a Referendariat (teacher training internship at a public school). Successful completion of the Referendariat is a precondition for future employment at public schools.

At this stage, Masters graduates will also have attained the level of knowledge and skills required to commence an academic career in the sciences. Alternatively, Vocational Education graduates (either Bachelor or Master) can find employment at private vocational schools, technical colleges, academies or comparable institutions.

Both the Bachelor and Master degree courses are divided into a professional spezialisation, a general teaching subject and the social and educational sciences. This structure corresponds to the interdisciplinary range of tasks for teachers at vocational schools. Students have a choice of thirteen teaching subjects, which allows them to develop an individual profile and also provides the basis for a considerably expanded range of teaching duties.

You are required to pay an application fee of €2,000 in order to apply for this program.
