The Master's degree program "Empirical Educational Research" aims to specifically introduce students to research practice and qualifies them for responsible positions in the field of quality assurance and development as well as for collaboration in empirically oriented research projects at universities and non-university research institutions. In addition to research and higher education, education and school administration as well as institutions for evaluation in the school, higher education and further education sectors (evaluation agencies) are large potential areas of employment. Research-based skills are also becoming increasingly relevant in schools and teaching, meaning that the degree course also offers interesting and broad career prospects for graduates who wish to enter the teaching profession or pursue a career in the school sector.
