The purpose of the social pedagogy master’s program is to train professionals with high-level professional knowledge who are able to responsibly carry out research, expert, educational, decision-making, management, planning and organizational tasks in social pedagogy arenas independently or in groups.
During the four-semester training period, we ensure students’ appropriate learning experiences by using short lectures, presentations, research reports, essays, experiential learning situations, and training elements, strengthening their autonomous student aspirations. By using various forms of feedback, such as project work, case studies, and presentations, we contribute to the formulation of their professional reflections and the development of their critical thinking.
The training makes our students suitable for performing managerial tasks in social pedagogy (primarily dealing with children and youth) arenas, as well as for continuing their studies in doctoral training.
