Interdisciplinary Bachelor's Degree (FüBa)

The course regulations for the "Fächerübergreifenden Bachelorstudiengang" allow for two types of internship programs - a non-school-based internship program, or a school-based internship program.

The students who choose the school-based option must complete a four-week internship outside the university, and a four-week internship in a school.

The students who choose the non-school-based option must complete two four-week internships, or one eight-week internship, outside the university.

More information about each type of program can be found below.

    Goals and Requirements of the Internship

    1. Your internship will involve intensive collaboration with the school's teachers, and comprehensive preparation of lessons.

    2. The internship should be used to get a sense of daily life at a school, and as an opportunity to assess your own suitability as a teacher.

    3. The student teacher should have the opportunity to make use of her knowledge of the subject, and didactic methods, within the school system.

    4. The teaching hours should be conducted in the "Sekundarbereich I und II".

During the observation hours, the student-teacher must document the lessons, displaying the ability to use necessary lesson-planning terminology. A selection of these (3-4) should be attached to the final report.

    6. At the conclusion of the internship, the student-teacher must write an eight page report about the internship. The must be submitted four weeks after the completion of the internship.
