What made you choose this degree programme?
For the teacher training program, I chose the subjects that I enjoy the most and in which I can work best didactically. Besides, it was already clear to me in school that I would like to study philosophy.
In which respect have or haven’t your expectations been fulfilled?
Philosophy is extremely interdisciplinary. Therefore, you can go in many different directions and further study your interests specifically. In particular, my enthusiasm for ancient philosophers and their views has been greatly enhanced.
Which aspect of your degree programme do you enjoy most?
Being able to apply philosophy as a methodological science in everything, whether it is pure thought experiments or practical problems in everyday life. The course can be very flexible, whether thematically or in terms of the course of study.
What has been your biggest challenge to date?
The written submissions are unusual at first. But you get used to it very quickly and can choose a lot of topics yourself to keep yourself motivated.
What would you like to become after completing your degree?
I would like to work either as a teacher or in a comparable didactic profession. The best would then be a combination of both of my subjects.
Which advice would you like to give to students who consider enrolling in this degree programme?
Don't get overwhelmed at the beginning of your studies and enjoy the opportunity to learn a lot about other subjects in philosophy.
