Teaching Principles

The Master Program “Health and Society: Gender and Diversity Studies Berlin” follows these principles:

Transnationality and interculturalism will be secured through the international composition of both the learners and the teachers. We employ teaching personnel from university and fields of practice who can represent and convey the differing cultures and health systems.

Interdisciplinary and problem-orientated teaching, learning and research will be realised through the shaping of a curriculum in which small group seminars, project work and Internet supported individual study have an appropriate place. We allow students plenty of room in which to bring in and reflect their own experiences in the context of theoretical training (a conjunction of theory and practice). Two modules follow the problem-based learning approach.

Virtuality by the use of eLearning on complementary learning platforms and internet-supported school sectors during and after the on-site offerings.

With these principles in mind, the course of studies will make a contribution to the construction of a new culture of knowledge in the global context.
