Degree programme

The students in the Master's programme School Music I further develop their existing skills in practice and theory, relate them to didactic issues and develop their individual profile depending on their focus. By networking with future fields of activity, they are prepared in a practical way for their pedagogical and artistic professional life.



Major-Minor Programme Model

In choosing a major, students choose their core subject area. They can choose one or two minors to deepen the competencies acquired in their major or to expand these competencies across disciplines. Alternatively, they can also choose open courses to form an Individual Area of Study (ISB). 


Possible minors for this major


Individual Area of Study 

Instead of a minor, students can also choose an Individual Area of Study (ISB). Courses chosen as part of an ISB are cross-disciplinary and subject to special admissions requirements. The number of places on such courses is limited.


Events

An insight into the working field of music education is provided by the public examination performances with varied programmes and presentation of the professional versatility of the students.
