The study and examination regulations regulate the framework conditions of your degree programme. They include study objectives and content, admission requirements, information on the scope and sequence of the programme.
An overview of the compulsory and compulsory elective modules to be completed can be found in the annex to the study and examination regulations (§ 28).
The module handbook covers all modules of your Master's degree programme in Engineering Education.
You will find information e.g. on module content and scope, learning objectives and competences, associated courses and examinations as well as organisational matters (e.g. module type, duration, frequency of courses, contact persons).
The study and examination regulations contain all information on the necessary examinations, including the final examination and examination procedures.
[The examination tim etable provides you with an overview of the dates on which your examinations for the individual subjects take place each semester.
In the Master's degree programme in Engineering Education, students must complete a total of ten weeks of school work placement - referred to below as the school work placement semester.
Module I
The first module of the school internship semester (two weeks) is already completed in the Bachelor's degree programme. Graduates of external Bachelor's or Diploma degree programmes in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology have the option of completing these two missing weeks of school placement in the Master's degree programme (together with the second module).
To do this, it is necessary to register for Module II in the Master's programme at the Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs and to enter the note "Module 1+2" under "Remarks".
Module II and III
The second module (three weeks) and the third module (five weeks) of the school internship must be completed during the course of the Master's programme in the lecture-free period after the first and second semesters respectively. The respective registration for Module II and Module III must be submitted to the Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs. The Master's degree programme in Engineering Education is listed there under the name "BA/MA-Gewerbelehrer (Technikpädagogik)".
During modules II and III, students also attend courses at the State Seminar for Didactics and Teacher Training (Vocational Schools) in Karlsruhe. It is not necessary to register with the state seminar (contact person: Mr Kussmann), as the seminar has access to the registrations at the Ministry of Education and Cultural Affairs (online registration also automatically includes registration for the accompanying courses at the seminar).
In your Master's thesis, you demonstrate that you have deepened your knowledge in a chosen field of electrical engineering and information technology within a specified period of five months through independent and (self-) reflective research activity. You will work on a research question relevant to practice and/or science, draw on a sufficient repertoire of research methods and always apply these critically in relation to the solution of your own research question and research problem.
You will find information on the framework conditions for your thesis in the study and examination regulations.
The Academic Examinations Office can provide you with organisational information about your thesis.

Please addressany questions regarding content to your examiners.
Once you have successfully passed your final examination, you can apply to the Academic Examination Office for your graduation documents:
- Degree certificate
- Certificate of your academic degree
- final transcript of records (Transcript of Records)
Information on the final documents
If you are de-registered after completing your degree programme, you will be provided with certificates of your period of study via the CAMPUS portal:
- Notice of de-registration (shows the reason for and effective date of de-registration)
- Certificate of de-registration (shows your degree programme and periods of study)
- Certificate of study periods for submission to the German Pension Insurance (according to form V0510 DRV)
Information on de-registration
You will graduate from the Engineering Education degree programme with aMaster of Science (M. Sc.).
After successfully completing the programme, you can pursue a career as a teacher or work in industry. If you decide to become a teacher, you will complete an 18-month traineeship after successfully completing the Master's degree programme. You can then teach the subjects "Electrical Energy and Automation Technology" and "Systems and Information Technology" at vocational schools, technical high schools, technical colleges or vocational colleges, for example.
There is a considerable demand for young talent in these types of schools, so your chances of being hired are very favourable nationwide.
The Master's degree also qualifies you for a career in science or a doctorate. The Graduate School is happy to support you in your doctoral studies.
