About the Program

The Lehramt an Gymnasien (Teaching at Secondary Schools) programme prepares students for the teaching profession at Secondary Schools from grades 5 to 13. It consists of two subjects, plus educational sciences ('Bildungswissenschaften') and the STEM-oriented interdisciplinary networking area ('MINT-orientierter interdisziplinärer Vernetzungsbereich'). The program includes an in-company internship ('Betriebspraktikum') and practical phases in school ('Grundpraktikum' and 'Praxissemester'), making it practice-oriented. In Physics specifically, students acquire basic knowledge of Physics, gain insight into fundamental physical contexts within existing models and theories, and learn to present fundamental models using experiments to apply and teach scientific procedures in their lessons. The program also includes subject-related didactics where students learn methodological fundamentals of good Physics lessons.
