Welcome to the AG Förderpädagogik
The work of the Special Needs Education working group is based on a humanistic view of humanity and scientifically sound findings.
We train students for teaching-related professions in inclusive and special education settings as well as for professional pedagogical work in non-school settings.
We offer courses in the field of integrated special needs education for the teaching degree programs in elementary school as well as secondary schools.
In research and teaching, our focus is on issues relating to the areas of learning and emotional and social development as well as in the context of diagnostics and counseling.
Information on the elementary school teaching degree with integrated special needs education (G-IFP) and the postgraduate master's degree can be found here.
You can find information on the teaching degree at Hauptschule, Realschule, Sekundarschule and Gesamtschule with integrated special needs education (HRSGe-IFP) and the postgraduate master's degree here.
