Romance studies considers Romance languages, literature and cultures. In Italian, the focus is on the Italian-speaking world (in particular Italy, Ticino).
The Master of Education in Italian combines specialised and consolidated learning content in the areas of literary studies, linguistics and cultural studies with specialised didactic teaching of these topics in preparation for a career as a teacher.
The guiding principle of this blending of specialised knowledge with specialised didactics is the conviction that the acquisition of scientific knowledge and competencies is an essential prerequisite for the development of an own teaching profile. The classroom-oriented preparation of knowledge acquired in the Master of Education is the focus of the specialised didactics components of the degree programme.
The teaching content is accompanied by practical language courses that aim to develop and consolidate the active and passive Italian language skills gained in the Bachelor’s degree with teaching degree option.
