Subject Matter
Students taking the Bachelor's degree program in Chemistry as part of the teacher training course at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz receive a "Bachelor of Education". The standard period of study is three years. In addition to Chemistry, the course also includes a second teaching subject, Educational Sciences, and compulsory teaching experience in schools. With a view to working in a school, graduates are taught to give lessons in chemistry in a competent and clear manner that is appropriate for the age of the pupils. Alongside lessons on the basic theoretical principles of inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and physical chemistry, students also attend lessons on teaching methods and approaches. One key element of the training is the practical implementation and application of the methods learned during teaching experience in schools. The Bachelor's course is completed with a Bachelor's dissertation.
Unlike many other universities, the range of lectures and practical experience is tailored to the specific requirements of students who are training to be teachers, usually with special events for students on the teacher training course. The new Chemistry Department building provides excellent working conditions
