Description
If you are interested in studying music and would like to combine this with a pedagogical education, Cottbus is the right place for you. The artistic-pedagogical degree programme in Instrumental and Vocal Performance and Teaching leads to a Bachelor of Arts in eight semesters. The following majors are offered in two study programmes:
- Classical music: orchestral instruments, piano, guitar, accordion, recorder, singing;
- Popular music: piano, electric guitar, electric bass, drums, saxophone, trumpet, singing.
The prerequisite for admission to the degree programme is passing an assessment test.
The assessment tests for the study start in the winter semester 2025/26 will take place in summer 2025.
The Cottbus-Sachsendorf Campus is a wonderful place to study - the excellent student-to-staff ratio, the concert hall, the library, the green, inspiring surroundings and the excellent connections to major cities of musical interest are just some of the many advantages.
The study programme is based on the quality criteria of the ALMS (»Arbeitsgemeinschaft der Leitenden musikpädagogischer Studiengänge«, Working Group of the Heads of Music Pedagogical Study Programmes).
Der abwechslungsreiche Studienaufbau, der schöne Campus und die freundliche Atmosphäre an der Uni haben mich sofort begeistert. Das Beste am Studium ist die Verbindung von künstlerischer und pädagogischer Ausbildung.
Mit dem IGP-Studium ist man nicht auf eine berufliche Tätigkeit festgelegt und kann schon im Studium berufliche Erfahrungen sammeln. Am meisten gefällt mir, dass ich in meinem jeweiligen Haupt- und Nebenfach im Einzelunterricht ausgebildet werde und mich so individuell entwickeln kann.
