Course Content

Your course overview in the distance learning programme "Gesundheitsmanagement”

Your compass for the future in healthcare: The Bachelor's in "Gesundheitsmanagement” perfectly combines theory and practice. While the compulsory modules immerse you into the depths of health management, elective modules like “Technik im Gesundheitswesen”

or “KI in der Gesundheitsversorgung” allow you to follow your personal interests. Specialisation tracks like “Pflegemanagement” equip you with specialised knowledge that sets you apart from other health managers. And thanks to the dual concept, you start accruing career successes during your studies – supported by experts and practice-oriented projects.

 

Electives: In Electives A, B and C, you choose two elective modules each. Elective D: Decide at the beginning of your studies between an internship at a company or all modules from Elective D. You complete the internship with a written reflection. If you choose the modules from Elective D, all modules from this elective must be completed. Mixed forms between the internship and Elective D are not possible.

Fernstudium B.A. Soziale Arbeit

Ich bin mit meinem Fernstudium Soziale Arbeit an der IU sehr zufrieden. Besonders gut gefällt mir die hohe Flexibilität, da sich das Studium gut an den eigenen Alltag und berufliche sowie private Verpflichtungen anpassen lässt. Die Studieninhalte sind interessant und praxisnah aufgebaut und die verschiedenen Lernmöglichkeiten helfen dabei, sich die Inhalte individuell zu erarbeiten. Insgesamt bietet mir das Studium genau die Flexibilität, die ich mir von einem Fernstudium gewünscht habe.

Super spannendes Studium

Es fällt wahnsinnig leicht, an Inhalte zu kommen und diese zu lernen. Alles ist so verständlich aufbereitet, es gibt immer ein Skript, dessen Inhalte zuverlässig zu Prüfungen kommen. Zudem kann man Podcasts/Videos und zusätzliches Material ansehen sowie in Austausch mit anderen treten. Gibt es ein Problem, erreicht man immer sofort jemanden im Sekretariat oder via Chat. Es macht großen Spaß und fällt mir sehr leicht, auf diese Weise zu studieren.

Bin ein großer Fan der IU

Ich bin ein großer Fan der IU und habe dort in letzter Zeit unglaublich viel gelernt. Die Möglichkeiten, die Studierenden geboten werden – insbesondere im Fernstudium – sind sehr vielfältig und flexibel. Dadurch macht das Lernen nicht nur Spaß, sondern lässt sich auch hervorragend in den Alltag integrieren. [...] Für mich gehört die IU zu den besten Anbietern für Fernstudiengänge in Deutschland. Ich kann sie aus voller Überzeugung jederzeit weiterempfehlen.
