Building on the skills acquired in the GIG, there is a range of opportunities for deepening. Lectures are accompanied by seminars with independent, application-oriented development tasks (integration of research into teaching). The specialist internship is an integral part of the curriculum towards the Bachelor’s degree. Project seminars in the Master’s programme work on current research topics in interdisciplinary groups. Theses derive from research and are supervised individually by HSL. Double-degree programmes also promote intercultural and linguistic skills.

Double degree programmes; cooperation with many academic higher education institutions, key areas such as Eastern Europe, South America, China.
