    Catholic Theology as subject in the Interdisciplinary Bachelors Degree Programme (Bachelor of Arts)

    About

    In the first semester, students take four basic courses in Biblical Theology, Historical Theology, Systematic Theology and Practical Theology, each of which opens up a specific perspective on theology as a science of the Christian faith, offering first insights into theological issues, methods and content. At a later stage of the programme, students start exploring in depth how faith in the God of Jesus Christ is reflected in the Bible, history and present-day experience and takes on relevance for the thoughts, lives and actions of people in the world today. Students learn to provide information about the content and forms of the Christian faith; to discuss ethical problems from a theological perspective; to perceive the biographical dimension of faith; to reflect critically on religious positions and traditions in the Church and in society, and to classify them in the fields of religious education. If students did not take Latin and Greek at school, they have the opportunity to easily acquire the specialist knowledge of Latin and Greek required for the Masters Teacher Training Course for Grammar Schools. As part of the interdisciplinary bachelor's degree programme, students with a focus on teaching have to complete a non-school-based internship as well as a school internship, both lasting four weeks. The non-school-based internship helps students to get first work insights in the area of teaching, to check on their career aspiration. For students with an non-school-based focus, an eight-week non-school-based internship must be completed.
    • An interest in theological and philosophical issues: the question of God, the question of man, and the meaning of life
    • An interest in the wealth of experience provided by the Bible and in historical, social and political issues and problems
    • Willingness to assess and discuss scholarly texts
    • With regard to a potential career in teaching: an interest in working with young people and in developing teaching and learning processes

    Career

    Most graduates embark on a Masters degree programme in order to qualify as a grammar school teacher. However, the Bachelors degree is also a professional qualification: graduates may find employment wherever (also) theological expertise is required, such as in the media, publishing and libraries, politics and culture, as well as in social and administrative institutions. This is particularly the case for students who embark on postgraduate study in the Masters degree programme in Religion(s), Society and Culture.
