With the master at the university.

Studying without a baccalaureate, which is long. But so far hampered the special arrangements of the 16 countries for access to universities and colleges. Now, the Culture Ministers agreed on common standards - proficiency tests and rehearsals will soon no longer exist.

 

The Minister of Culture have a promise of

The qualification is for candidates with training easier

Up to now had to study interesting without Baccalaureate with 16 completely different special regulations of the provinces to address.

After a long tug of war now seems almost like a little sensationalism to: masters, technicians and specialist qualification is a general law. That means they can, without further trial of any proficiency tests or specialist of their choice at a university or college in the study. Professionals with at least two years of training plus three years of professional practice will get a professionally bound access law. Your study must be in some of their previous work Fachrichtung correspond.

So far, students without a baccalaureate rarely

Some countries want to access even further liberalize, which according to the agreements in a number of points possible. Rhineland-Palatinate, the professional practice for the prescribed time in two years. Baden-Württemberg seek to dismantle it altogether. The Rhineland-Palatinate Education Minister Doris Ahnen (SPD): "Next goal must be a true equivalence of vocational and general education. The process of the universities for people with vocational skills to open, may Stralsunder with the decision has not yet been completed. "

Studying without graduation - because that is all about? It also works in the Federal Republic has been more than three decades.

According to the "European Student Report" in Germany is higher opening for non-graduates compared with 22 other states so far behind on one of the rear seats.

All previous studies on the study of non-graduates show: The differences between the prior knowledge will not be misunderstood. But neither the parties nor their "Gymnasium" fellow students appreciate this in the course of study as lasting for the serious Studierfähigkeit On. If the entry and managed to overcome the first semester will be midterm and final exams later passed as often as traditional graduates.

High identification with the discipline

In some subjects, such as the Magisterium, are often even better results. Not infrequently, these students in their learning and performance-oriented stable. Generally, they have a particularly strong identification with the discipline certified.

Following the decision of the Minister of Culture are now some countries have higher laws must change. The ministers will notably in universities is still a lot of persuasion must. The German Rectors' Conference (HRK) is not fundamentally opposed to the inclusion of qualified professionals, but only in January significantly different admission criteria are recommended.

To wants to master only professionally bound for the study enroll. The University of Frankfurt / Main convened recently at their university autonomy and decided, contrary to the usual country already rules will only allow graduates to study.

Sun also warned of the philologists, given the association Stralsunder opening earlier decision, "not as corrections Hochschulzugang discounted merchandise to scrapping."
