In the Bachelor course in Modern Foreign Languages and Foreign Language Didactics (NFF), you acquire comprehensive foundations for the scientifically reflected teaching of foreign languages in private and public educational institutions. This includes thorough foreign language and practical language training, knowledge of scientific language didactics as well as specialisation areas relating to linguistics or literary/cultural studies.
You will study a language major, a language minor subject (1st minor) and didactics of the major subject (2nd minor). This ensures that your skills for teaching language are always linked to the appropriate linguistic skills and content-related subject knowledge in the area of foreign language literatures and cultures. By studying a second foreign language as a minor subject, you will also acquire the scientific principles of the multi-lingual teaching of foreign languages.

The Bachelor’s course comprises a major subject of Philology I (English, French or Spanish), a minor subject of Philology II (English, French, Spanish or Portuguese) and a second minor subject relating to the foreign language didactics of the major subject (Teaching English as a Foreign Language or the Didactics of Romance Languages).
