The programme is taught in English
The semester programme consists of two mandatory modules of 10 and 20 ECTS credits respectively, which is equivalent to 30 ECTS.
You will be studying in an international study environment at VIA University College at Campus Aarhus C. The Campus is new and located in the city centre of Aarhus.
The international students come from many different countries. Most come from Europe.
Teaching methods
Our teaching methods consist of different and varied work and study forms, such as lectures, dialogue-based communication, discussions, student presentations and group activities. The innovative teaching approaches are all process-based.
Collaboration between teachers and students is partly based on student initiative and independent work. We see active student participation and fieldwork as valuable and important components of studying a profession.
The practical perspective: Danish school culture
As an international student, you will study Danish school culture close up as a part of your semester. We consider the practical perspective of the teaching profession to be very important.
We will allocate you to a Danish primary, lower secondary school, or boarding school for the module School Placement of 10 ECTS credit.
The school placement will provide you with the opportunity to prepare, deliver, and evaluate lessons at your assigned school, to follow and observe experienced teachers in their teaching practice and to observe how Danish pupils learn in different learning environments. You will also have the chance to visit classes that focus on specific aspects of teaching.
