"Ich wollte schon immer etwas Soziales studieren. Das besondere an diesem Studium ist die Kombination aus Sozialpädagogik und Sozialmanagement vereint in einem Bachelorstudium. Daher habe ich mich bewusst für die FHD entschieden. Besonders gut gefällt mir hier der sehr gut gelungene Theorie-Praxistransfer."
Zum Interview mit Ella
I was convinced by the management part of this degree program because I could always imagine myself in a management position later on and I think it's important to learn the necessary skills beforehand. I already knew from the beginning of my studies that I would like to work with people with disabilities at some point, possibly also with animals. I didn't expect that I would be able to do exactly that right after graduation. Now I work as a social pedagogue with mentally ill and mentally handicapped people, especially in the field of animal-assisted intervention. - Nathalie, graduate B.A. Social Pedagogy & Social Management
I chose this degree program because I would like to accompany, advise and support people in their various situations and phases of life. I particularly liked the small study groups and the open-minded professors and lecturers. After graduation, there were numerous areas in which I could work. Now I work part-time as a social worker at a school in addition to my current Master's degree.

Of course, our student advisors and professors will also be happy to advise you personally and answer all your questions about the course content.
Classroom events at the university alternate with phases of self-study. These are covered both with conventional teaching/learning materials and with e-learning. Time and location-independent learning is thus ensured to a large extent. The Saxon school vacations are lecture-free. This ensures a good compatibility of family and studies.
The Bachelor's program takes into account the special situation of working students by limiting attendance times at the university to two weekends per month and a one-week attendance phase (block event) at the end of the semester. As a rule, the attendance events take place twice a month on Fridays from 17:00 to 21:00 and on Saturdays from 08:30 to 14:30. The monthly attendance time thus comprises 24 course hours (of 45 minutes each). A separate schedule is prepared for each semester. The dates of the attendance times are known early and in advance, so that one's own professional activities can be planned well.
The combination of theory and practice is an elementary component of the study concept. Through your parallel professional activity, the opportunity for practical application of your acquired theoretical knowledge from the study of vocational education is already integrated, so you do not need to complete external internships. Our practice-oriented teaching will take up application examples from your everyday professional life in practice transfer and reflection seminars.
Upon successful completion of the program, you will receive an internationally recognized Bachelor of Arts degree in "Social Pedagogy and Management" and the title "State-recognized social pedagogue".
The career prospects for graduates of the Social Pedagogy and Management (B.A.) program are diverse. Fields of work can be found
e.g. in:
Social pedagogues are employed in public, non-profit and private institutions. In addition, the combination of social pedagogical competencies and management functions opens up opportunities for work in management positions, e.g. in day care centers.
The regular duration of study is 9 semesters.
If applicants already have previous educational training as a state-certified educator or state-certified curative education nurse, this previous knowledge will be taken into account. The placement is in the 4th semester - thus the duration of study is shortened to 6 semesters (3 years).
As a private university, we offer you many advantages. In order to be able to offer you this high quality of study, we have to charge tuition fees. As a private university, the FHD is not supported by public funds, but must finance itself completely.
We would be happy to look at your individual situation and find solutions together.
