Annotation

Are you interested in economic relationships and would like to teach them in schools in the future? The Bachelor’s degree "Teaching Qualification in Economics" is designed as a dual-subject Bachelor’s degree programme and combines the teaching subject of Economics with another teaching subject. The programme is supplemented by educational content that prepares students for a future career in teaching.

During their studies, students acquire in-depth knowledge of business administration and economics and learn to analyse economic issues from an academic perspective. At the same time, they explore the fundamentals of teaching and learning as well as the requirements of the school educational field.

The degree course forms the fundamentals for a subsequent traineeship at a school. Graduates are prepared to competently teach economics and to guide students in their vocational training, academic studies and career.
