In the program for secondary and comprehensive schools with a focus on special and inclusive education (HRSGe/ISP) you study two subjects and Educational Sciences. At least one of the two subjects must be German Languages and Literatures or Mathematics. Other subjects to choose from are English Studies, Biology, Chemistry, Protestant Theology, German Languages and Literatures, History, Art (cannot be combined with Music or Sports Sciences), Mathematics, Music (cannot be combined with Art or Sports Sciences), Philosophy, Physics, Social Sciences , or Sport Science (cannot be combined with Music or Art).
Unlike the primary education program, the secondary and comprehensive schools Bachelor's degree does not have a separate version of degree programme variants in Educational Sciences - Integrated Teacher Training for Special Education. You apply and enroll in the study programme variants Educational Sciences, but then study a profile "Educational Sciences - Integrated Teacher Training for Special Education" within this framework. This differs from the profile Educational Sciences mainly in that you complete the module "Basic Issues in Special Education and Inclusive Pedagogy" (25-ISP1) and not the module "Difference and Heterogeneity" (25-BiWi6_a).
In the Master's program, you will continue to study your subjects, with the addition of "German as a Second Language" module. In contrast to the Bachelor's degree, in which special and inclusive education is "only" a profile of the educational sciences, in the Master's degree you will study a separate version of degree programme variants "Educational Sciences - Integrated Teacher Training for Special Education". This must also be taken into account, especially in the application.
The preparation, implementation and reflection of the practical semester with preparatory training are at the center of the Master's program. This phase lasts two semesters. At the end of the program, you will write your Master's thesis in one of your three Subjects.
Upon completion of the master's degree for Secondary and Comprehensive Schools and Special and Inclusive Education (HRSGe/ISP), you can (you do not have to) add a two-semester master's degree for Educational Science of Special Education Needs with Career Perspective of Teacher for Special and Inclusive Education. With the dual degree, you can teach at both secundary and comprehensive schools and special education schools with a focus on "Learning" or "Emotional and Social Development." In addition to the broader qualification, this will increase your chances on the job market and your income prospects.
