Dual study programme in social work /

Studying and practical work - it's possible with the dual study programme in social work. We co-operate with the Baden-Württemberg Cooperative State University in Villingen-Schwenningen.

The dual study programme is available in the following subject areas:

Mental health and addiction /

As a social worker in psychiatry and addiction treatment, you will accompany people with mental health problems on their way back to everyday life. You will provide material assistance, further treatment options and work in a multi-professional team.

Network and social space work /

The interdisciplinary field of work aims to identify the living conditions in social spaces and the situation of people in difficult circumstances and to initiate changes where this is considered necessary in order to enable a successful life in the long term.

Diverse & varied /

You can expect not only a wide range of activities with topics such as working with relatives, promoting self-help, prevention and aftercare, but also a varied field of activity. Possible areas of employment after graduation include clinics, rehabilitation centres and homes where patients and residents are treated or cared for as inpatients. In addition, graduates of the degree programme can also be found in the outpatient sector and care for the chronically mentally ill and addicts in workshops and assisted living facilities.
