The three-year coursework Bachelor of Arts (B.A. Cultural Geography<\/a>) and Bachelor of Science (B.Sc. Physical Geography<\/a>) provide fundamental knowledge and methods in Geography and prepare students for future roles in applied Geography as well as for graduate scholarship. The two year Master courses (M.A. Cultural Geography<\/a> and M.Sc. Climate and Environmental Sciences<\/a><\/strong>) have a high reputation particularly as both allow students to be closely associated with current scientific debates and research projects. Except for M.Sc.<\/a>, the language of teaching and examination is German.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Masters students are closely integrated into current research in our different fields of expertise which provides distinctive learning opportunities: critical reflection on problems relevant to contemporary society; hands-on training in the development of research questions and their empirical application in projects; an overall training in scientific competence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The education for the teaching of geography<\/a> (provided for all the different types of schools in Germany) concentrates on questions of didactics and communication, alongside the varied cultural and physical geography curriculum.
