Bachelor & Master

Studies at the University of Bremen take place in the bachelor's/master's degree system. Only the Law degree program concludes with the First Law Examination. Bachelor's and master's degrees are tiered degrees. After 6 (in exceptional cases 7) semesters of Bachelor's studies, you leave the university with a first professionally qualifying academic degree. This can be followed by a Master's degree course of 4 (in exceptional cases 3) semesters.

Teaching Degrees

Teacher training is divided into three parts,
 - the Bachelor's program,
 - the subsequent Master's degree course and
 - the postgraduate internship.
The so-called Master's degree in Education is equivalent to the previous first state examination. The Master's degree course is followed by an 18-month postgraduate internship, which concludes with the second state examination.
