Annotation
The degree course begins at the same time at the university in Paderborn and in a practice facility. As a student, you will work at both study locations throughout the entire six-semester degree course. The close interlinking of the practical and university study locations helps you both to acquire scientifically sound knowledge and to develop competencies for social work. The practice of professional action and its reflection are also fostered.
Admission requirements
Pre-study work placement (3 months) in the field of social work, social education or special needs education. The pre-study work placement is deemed to have been completed when you have acquired the qualification for the degree course by means of the subject-specific higher education entrance qualification from a technical school for social work/special education. The fulfilment of the required pre-study work placement must be credibly assured by the application deadline. The actual completion of the programme is possible until the beginning of the semester (September 1st). A placement position does NOT have to be proved. On admission, the Catholic University of Applied Sciences grants students access to the pool of cooperating practice facilities.
