Not all degree programmes are the same
Many degree programmes have similar or abstract names - but what exactly is behind titles such as cultural studies, media informatics or European studies? Particularly in the case of interdisciplinary or modern degree programmes, it is not always clear at first glance what content is taught and what career prospects result from it.
Find out what is really behind the title:
- Read the module descriptions on the University of Regensburg website - there you will find out which specific topics are covered.
- Attend information events to get a realistic impression of everyday study life.
- Askthe course-related information and advicecentre directly if you are unsure - they will provide you with detailed information on content, requirements and career fields.
Compare similar degree programmes - also at other universities - to better understand the differences and specialisations.
