BA/BS in Pflege

The nursing bachelor prepares students to take responsibility for people who need care and to manage complex care processes. Graduates receive a Bachelor of Science together with professional licensure as a nursing specialist. The programme is a dual course of study. Students sign a higher-education training contract with a provider of practical training, such as a hospital or an inpatient or outpatient care facility, and receive a monthly payment throughout the studies. The amount follows the collective agreement of that provider. Nurses with a completed three-year vocational qualification can enter a shortened route, with up to 105 ECTS credited. Skilled workers without a school-leaving qualification may also be admitted after three years of relevant experience. Study begins in the winter semester, and no tuition fees are charged.
