The bachelor's degree is the first professional qualification. The standard period of study is a total of six semesters, during which various forms of courses (e.g. seminars, lectures or exercises) are offered for the individual modules.
A multi-subject bachelor’s programme consists of a major subject with 120 credit points (CP for short; 1 CP = 30 hours for attendance, preparation and follow-up work, private study, assessed coursework and examinations) and a minor subject with 60 CP.
‘Christianity in Culture, History, and Education’ is a major subject that can be combined with almost all major subjects offered at the University of Jena (except ‘Basics of Christianity’).
A university entrance qualification, such as a general secondary school leaving certificate, is required for admission onto the study programme.
More information on university entrance qualifications can be found here.
The study programme is taught in German. You must therefore have a very good command of German at the start of the study programme.
Further language skills except German:
Latin proficiency (Latinum) and Greek proficiency (Graecum) or Latin proficiency and Hebrew proficiency (Hebraicum) plus knowledge of Greek. Students must submit evidence of their language skills (except German–see above) when registering the subject of their bachelor’s thesis at the latest.
