As a didactic subject, NWT can be started in the winter and summer semester.
From the winter semester 2026/27, admission restrictions apply to the Teaching Qualification for Primary Schools degree course.

Please note that the degree course of teaching qualification at primary schools at the University of Regensburg can only be started in the winter semester. In addition to the subject-specific scientific and didactic basics in biology, chemistry and physics, interdisciplinary and application-related contents are the main focus of the degree course. The integrated approach provides solid preparation for the interdisciplinary subject areas in the primary school curriculum. The reference to action is reflected in the preparation, execution and evaluation of experiments, the work with models as well as other subject- and student-appropriate methods. In addition, it is possible to gain experience in scientific teaching work with pupils in the learning laboratory during the course of studies, as well as to acquire competencies in support diagnostics.
Note: The didactics subject NWT at the University of Regensburg can also be selected in the Teaching Qualification for Special Needs Education at Universities by choosing didactics for primary school (attention: The Teaching Qualification for Special Needs Education degree course itself is limited in capacity and can only ever be commenced in the winter semester; for more information, see the entry in the Higher Education Compass for Special Needs Education).
