Study structure

This page contains automatically translated content.

General

A degree programme consists of modules that are defined in the examination regulations and described in more detail in the module handbook. In terms of content and time, it makes sense to study these modules in a certain order. There is a sample study plan for each degree program, which shows you an ideal course of study. If you study in this way, you can complete your studies within the standard period of study. This is not always possible, so there may be individual deviations from the suggested course. When planning, you should bear in mind that not every module is offered in the winter and summer semesters and that some modules build on each other or have other participation requirements. The Student Advisory Service will help you to plan your studies individually.

Integrated sustainability studies

The basic modules teach fundamental theoretical and methodological knowledge about sustainability. You will receive an introduction to:

  • central terms, theories and concepts of sustainability science,
  • basic methods of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary sustainability research,
  • social conflicts and legal disputes in the field of sustainability,
  • the connection between sustainability and transformation processes.
  • Students will also learn the techniques of scientific work.

Students can choose a specialization from a total of 31 specializations.

The specialization module shows you how differently sustainability can be thought of and shaped - technically, socially, scientifically, legally, creatively or politically, depending on your choice.

Whether it's urban planning, biodiversity, climate change, digitalization or issues of justice: you decide which topic you are interested in. This will give you well-founded professional insights and teach you to understand complex challenges from different perspectives and actively help shape them.

Discover over 30 exciting focus areas - and find your approach to sustainable transformation. We recommend that you click on some of the focus areas to get a better idea of them.
