Electrical Engineering (teacher training) (B.Sc.) at TU Berlin

The bachelors program Electrical Engineering with teacher training is the first step towards acquiring the qualifications needed to teach this subject at vocational schools. The program teaches you the knowledge and skills of the fundamentals of electrical engineering, teaching methodology, and educational science. The technical component of the program includes, among others, the following topic areas: networks, electric energy systems, energy and propulsion technology, metrology, and information technology. In the compulsory elective component, you have the opportunity to pursue your personal interests in greater depth. During the teacher training components of the degree program, you will learn about the conditions for learning and education and how to shape learning processes during a lesson. During a six-week professional development internship at a school, you will gain initial teaching experience as well as explore pedagogical-didactic issues. Its purpose is to help you build and test your professional skills.

The degree program can be selected as a core subject and is supplemented with a secondary subject at TU Berlin (media or information technology) or at Freie Universitt Berlin or Humboldt-Universitt zu Berlin.

Please note that this degree course is intended for individuals who wish to pursue a teaching degree in the future. It is not suitable if you are searching for a strictly technical degree course.

The bachelors degree program in Electrical Engineering with teacher training combines a fundamental technical education and application-oriented modules from educational science and engineering sciences. In the educational science components, you will study concepts related to learning, education, and professional education. Using this background in theory, you observe and analyze professional teaching, learning, and development processes - particularly in lessons at vocational schools, training centers, and in other practical learning locations. Your approach to language acquisition, inclusion and heterogeneity will be both cross-cutting and interdisciplinary in special learning units. As a graduate, you will be capable of independent scientific work, critical thinking, and acting with social responsibility in different vocational education environments.
