The Bachelor’s Programme History offers basic education in human sciences and prepares for a master’s programme in the humanities. It conveys basic knowledge of historical categories, key data and connections in temporal and spatial diversity, which is to be presented from different research perspectives (e.g. cultural, political, social, economic) promoting the understanding of different cultures in the past and present and allowing a possibly unprejudiced, factual-analytical access to current problems of the present time. 

Students learn to question assured knowledge and receive instructions how to recognize the historicity of gender constructions, ideologies and religious concepts. Aparf from these expert skills, the study programme also imparts general skills such as independent research of information and knowledge, identifying and analysing complex connections and their verbal and oral presentation as well as working in a team. The examination with foreign teaching and learning environments is to be facilitated with a semester abroad.

The Bachelor’s Programme History offers comprehensive basic education in the humanities and prepares for occupational activities in public service, the cultural and social field, media, economy, politics and political counseling. Additonal personal qualifications according to individual inclinations (e.g. languages) complement the study programme.
