Study program structure and content
The study program focuses on the personal development of prospective teachers, the promotion of practical-methodical teaching skills in sports-related activities, and the scientific study of physical education.
Practical-methodical courses include 10 core subjects: Handball, soccer, basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, athletics, gymnastics/dance, swimming, combat sports, and snow sports. These are complemented by courses in the pedagogical-didactic area for the school subject of physical education, as well as scientific-theoretical courses in anatomy and physiology, exercise and motor science, sports medicine, sports sociology, and sports psychology.
The teacher education program includes several modules from educational sciences that deal with questions of upbringing and education. In addition, you will complete a three-week orientation internship at a school during your studies.

Images from the study program
Get a glimpse of how the study program works.
Subject-specific didactic courses with practical components make up nearly half of the classes.
The various disciplines of sports science are introduced through lectures.
Specific sports science content is explored in greater depth in seminars. The smaller group sizes in seminars also provide the opportunity to ask questions and engage in discussion.
Excursions provide the opportunity to experience unusual learning scenarios in body awareness and movement education.
