In the Two-subject Bachelor's degree programme in Communication Science, students choose an additional degree programme in addition to the main one, Communication Science. Both are studied to the same extent. All subjects offered with this two-subject degree may be combined.
The degree programme in Communication Science teaches methods, knowledge and skills that qualify students to work in media and communication careers, as well as in applied and university research. It deals with the conditions, structures, functions and possible effects of media and communication as well as their historical development in society. On the one hand, it deals with the media and communication-related aspects of public communication and, on the other, with the social and individual realities that develop under the influence and usage of media and communication. The academic training is complemented by practical professional orientation.
The two-subject Bachelor's degree programme in Communication Science has a modular structure. The majority of these are compulsory modules, within which various seminars and seminar topics are generally offered for selection.
In the first year, the programme introduces students to the basics and central theoretical perspectives of the subject. The media system and its framework conditions are discussed there. In addition, communication science methods of data collection and analysis are taught as well.
In the further course of the programme, important subject areas of communication science are explored in greater depth. Depending on your interests, you can choose seminars from the areas of "Society, the Public Sphere, Culture", "PR and Advertising Research", "Journalism Research" and "Reception Studies". This programme is supplemented by practical media courses.
In the third year of study, current communication science issues are empirically analysed in a practical research seminar. Finally, the Bachelor's thesis is prepared in the examination module and constructively supervised by the supervisor.
