Annotation
How do we learn to convey biological knowledge in an engaging and understandable way? How can we explain complex life processes in such a way that sparks curiosity and encourages reflection?
The Bachelor’s degree programme in Biology: Teaching Qualification for Grammar Schools addresses these and other fascinating questions related to teaching biological content. Here, you will acquire a solid foundation in biology and combine it with subject-specific didactics so that you can apply your knowledge later in the classroom. While you are studying Biology at the University of Hohenheim, you will choose your second teaching subject at the University of Stuttgart, State Academy of Fine Arts or State University of Music. You will receive your educational training at the Ludwigsburg University of Education and the State Seminary for Didactics and Teacher Training in Esslingen. If you want to combine your enthusiasm for biology with the joy of teaching, the practice-focused degree course is just right for you.
