Students can choose an additional artistic subject over all four semesters to sharpen their personal artistic profile and expand their music education expertise. Central components are several school internships with different focuses, conducted at local schools. Students can test themselves in teaching practice in secondary levels I and II and are individually guided and intensively prepared for the teaching profession. In the modules Educational Sciences and Music Pedagogy, as well as in the final module (Master's thesis), students deepen their scientific competencies, which also qualify them for doctoral studies.
