Studying a secondary profile in your Bachelor

With several secondary profiles, the university offers particularly talented students the opportunity to acquire additional professionally relevant qualifications during their Bachelor's degree, such as in composition and music theory or in wind band conducting and early music. Instead of elective modules, students enrolled in a secondary profile take a carefully coordinated package of courses in order to build a stable foundation in this particular area as well. 

Students in Bachelor programmes I-III have the following alternatives:

• Students either use their elective area to attend a variety of courses at the University. This also includes the option to take two semesters of 30-minute private lessons in the elective area (see form templates in the Information Center).
• Or students can apply for a secondary profile instead of taking elective modules. The secondary profile has its own study plan (see below). The additional lesson requirement is generally limited to one credit hour a week (SWS) per semester. It is required to apply and to pass the profile entrance examination to be able to study a secondary profile.
