What are my options after graduation?

The subject of educational science, in particular the bachelor's degree in educational science, can be combined with a variety of interests and opportunities.

Here is a selection of options for after graduation:

• Study of a consecutive master’s degree, e.g. the master’s degree educational research (only in German)
• Gather first professional work experience
• at least one year of professional activity: studying a further education, fee-based master’s course
• Stay abroad between the bachelor's and master's degree

With the completion of the Bachelor of Education there is no single and specific professional field in which graduates can exclusively work. On the contrary, there is a wide range of career prospects (only in German).
