English and American Studies

Recommended path of study for the BEd UF Englisch

The recommended path of study guides you through your study programme and offers you the best order in which you should complete your courses. You can view the study path in in u:space: in the record of examinations, the Semester Planner, or directly when you register for courses.

You can also check the graphic representation. 

How does the ‘Structured Study Path’ enrolment system work?

In the ‘Structured Study Path’ registration system, the allocation of available places for courses with continuous assessment is based on the study path percentages. These figures indicate the extent to which the courses specified in the path for the preceding semesters have been successfully completed.

From the second semester onwards, courses have defined prerequisites, and a score of 100% indicates that all prerequisites have been successfully completed. The ranking for the allocation of available places and the waiting list is based on these percentage values and thus on priority. The higher the percentage, the greater the chance of securing a place.

Starting your studies in the summer semester?

It is not recommended to start your MEd UF Englisch studies in the summer term. The time between the semesters is too short to guarantee that you can register for courses. We recommend continuing in your BEd Studies and completing courses for Block IIa for both of your UFs so you can graduate from your BEd studies over the summer.
