International Studies in Sports Sciences – M.A.
Student’s opportunity in Germany! Master Course in Sports Science conducted in English.
Dear Colleagues,
For most Students studying in Germany was out of question because of the foreign language German, hard to learn and not one of the world languages. From this year onwards the University of Konstanz offers a Master Course in Sports Sciences fully taught in English. So, students from around the world can experience a different environment and still can use English in class.
The M.A.-Study is qualifying students for the various scientifically-oriented professional fields of sport, sport education and sport sciences. The foundations of the M.A.-study are - besides didactical/methodical as well as sport-practical knowledge and experiences - especially the dealing with the scientific methods and themes of the subject field. The study is geared towards discussing the innovations grounded in sport sciences in regard to its actual needs and to the transfer of the scientific results to practice.The M.A.-Study is conceptualized in a way, so that the graduates of this study can mainly work in sport sciences institutions and research units or decide to receive a deepened scientific further qualification (Ph.D).
This in turn will allow them to work in scientifically oriented and characterized professions. Organization and Cost:1. The four semester study (after B.A. or B.S.) is a combination of distance learning (Semester 1 – SS 2008), residence in Konstanz (WS 2008/2009 and SS 2009), and free choice of stay (WS 2009/2010 – writing the Master thesis).2. The whole study is conducted in English.3. The study fees for one semester are € 587.70 and for the complete study € 2350.80.The study will be carried out with various didactical innovations (e.g. distance learning, team learning, e-Learning).
The goal of the overview (Introduction) courses in the first semester is to improve the probably different educational background of the students to the demanded state of knowledge. This will be done by ELearning offerings that cover extensively the different areas of sport sciences. The students are asked to work their way through the respective lessons by themselves prior to the beginning of the first semester. They can do so by using the offered self-tests dependant of their state of educational background. Similar pre-working is necessary in the course-free time prior to the beginning of the second and third semester. All this work is taken into consideration for the credit-calculation of each course. 1 Credit corresponds to a time expenditure of about 25 to 30 hours.
