About the programme
Educational Science (Pedagogy and Educational Theory) is a German-taught Master of Arts at the University of Oldenburg. It takes 4 semesters full-time, part-time study is possible, admission is limited and you can start only in the winter semester. The programme is technical and research-oriented, with specialisations in diversity-aware social work, lifelong learning and education management, and migration and education. You gain the theory and research skills to plan, organise and evaluate educational interventions and processes.
