Master of Arts (M.A.)

After successfully completing a B.A. programme, you have the option to continue one of the two joint degree courses in a Master’s programme in order to acquire a second professionally qualifying university degree.

Duration and structure of your studies

M.A. degree courses are designed as “single-subject programmes”. The standard length of study is four semesters, during which one must generally acquire a total of 120 credits. The programme is usually divided into a so-called core area, which serves the teaching of basic subject knowledge, and a compulsory elective area, in which students set their own specialist focus by attending selected courses from related disciplines.
