Bachelor's degree programs

In the Bachelor's degree program, students acquire scientific foundations, application-oriented basic knowledge and professional qualifications. Social and other key skills complement the course.

A Bachelor's thesis is written at the end of the course.

TU Dresden awards the academic degree "Bachelor of Arts" in the humanities and social sciences. The Bachelor's degree is a first university degree that qualifies you for a profession. It can be followed by a professional career or a Master's degree.

Master's degree programs

The Master's degree course enables further in-depth study or specialization in the same or a similar Department or an interdisciplinary expansion of existing qualifications. The Master's degree program prepares students for academic work at universities as well as for professional fields that require in-depth academic training.
