Master’s Programme Catholic Religious Education

The graduates can perceive theological and religious pedagogical problems and deal with them in a subject-specific competent manner. They have the ability to discourse on socially relevant questions of religion and worldview, including aspects of diversity and gender.

They can professionally communicate points of view based on theological and religious pedagogy in the sectors of school, education and pastoral care and design and lead (inter) religious educational and dialogue processes in a pluralism-sensitive manner.

The Master’s Programme in Catholic Religious Education offers an advanced theological and religious training with special focus on religious education and adult education, counselling and pastoral care.

The study programme is marked by a theological and multi-perspective understanding of education and didactics and promotes the graduates’ communicative, interdisciplinary and interreligious competences. The general principles of educational science, subject-didactics and the pedagogical studies in connection with the school practice, complement the subject-scientific education.

The Master’s Programme in Catholic Religious Education prepares students for professions in educational institutions, in church and social institutions, but also in the public, which require full academic and theological training with a focus on (religious) educational or pastoral competence.

The degree is linked to very good career prospects and a wide range of career opportunities.
