In the academic year 2024/25, study intensity at the universities of teacher education (UTEs) was the highest at Bachelor’s level at 85%, followed by Master’s level (59%) and upper secondary level teacher diplomas (Upper Secondary Diploma, 45%). At UTEs, the level of study depends on the branch of study. For example, the greatest study intensity is observed in branches only available at Bachelor’s level (e.g. Pre-Primary and Primary). Subjects that must be attended alongside work (e.g. Upper Secondary (Vocational/Professional Education)) or that at least offer this option (e.g. Special Education or Subject-Specific Didactics) are characterised by a low study intensity.
