Range of courses and selection of course

The teacher training programme at the University of Vienna consists of two teaching subjects and the General Principles of Education (ABGs). The Centre for Teacher Education is responsible for teaching the ABGs and the specialisation in Inclusive Education (SPL 49). (Note: This is not an identical study programme to the Bachelor's/Master's in Educational Science).

If you are nominated for the Teacher Training/ABG or Teacher Training/IP programme, you must complete the majority of the courses from the area of General Educational Science Fundamentals or the specialisation in Inclusive Education. You can find the relevant courses on offer in the course catalogue. There you will find all details such as the number of teaching units per week, start times,  number of ECTS credits, language of instruction, etc. directly next to the respective course. The course catalogue for the coming semester is available from around August or January. If you need an overview in advance, e.g. for the Learning Agreement, please consult the course catalogue for the winter or summer semester of the previous year. Please note that not all courses are offered in every semester.

Learning Agreement

If you have been nominated, please send us your Learning Agreement via Mobility Online by the end of July (for a stay in the winter semester) or the end of December (for a stay in the summer semester) at the latest.

Please note that the ZLB mobility coordinator can only confirm courses within SPL 49. If you wish to take courses from other degree programmes, please contact the respective degree programme to find out how non-subject co-registration is handled there (see also the list with information on non-subject co-registration).  The form "Approval form for courses outside your nominated field of study" must be used for non-subject-specific courses (all courses that do not begin with 49...) (this can be downloaded from Mobility Online). Further details can be found in the course catalogue.

Transcript of Records

In principle, all grades including ECTS credits will be published in U:SPACE within one month of the examination. You can print out your transcript of records including a digital signature via U:SPACE until at least the end of April (winter semester) or the end of November (summer semester).
