Catholic Religious Education is offered as a second subject (or supplementary teaching subject) within the master’s degree program Special Needs Education for Schools. As the first subject, Special Needs Education is studied. The public has (once again) become aware of the phenomenon of “religion” – often in its conflicting, dubious form. Against this backdrop, the aim of the degree program in Catholic Theology is to give students the skills required to (self-)critically assess contemporary religious phenomena in culture, society, and the Church on the basis of Christian self-understanding and its core categories of creation, revelation, and salvation.
