The Faculty of Social Science offers a wide range of disciplines through its various sections/teaching and research fields. Students can choose between the one-subject Bachelor of Arts Social Science and the two-subject programs Culture, Individual and Society and Politics, Economy and Society. The guiding principle is the close linking of the individual social science disciplines as well as a mutually complementary both academically oriented and application-oriented education. The bachelor's and master's degree programs in the social science (one-subject) are characterized by a clear, interdisciplinary academic and research-methodological orientation. The focus in the two-subject model is more strongly subject and professional field oriented.
The bachelor's degree program in social science teaches the fundamental aspects of sociology, social psychology and anthropology, political science and social economics, social policy, as well as the methods of empirical social research and statistics.
The handbook contains the module concept from 2012, changes can be found in the current Sowi-Info.
The bachelor's program Politics, Economy and Society deals with topics from the fields of political science, social economics, and sociology. Since this program is a two-subject bachelor's program, a second equivalent subject is required for enrollment.
