Organisation profile

In our research and teaching, we focus on prerequisites, processes and effects of education, especially in the area of teaching and learning in primary and secondary schools.

In teacher education, we are responsible for pre-service teachers‘ acquisition of pedagogical knowledge in the area of teaching, diagnostics, upbringing and innovation. Throughout the entire Bachelor's and Master's program, we provide students with a competence-, research- and practice-oriented education.
