Bachelor in Quellenkundliche Grundwissenschaften.Html

Starting with the module 'Archivwissenschaft I', Quellenkundliche Grundwissenschaften at Universität des Saarlandes offers a unique path for history students to dive into the study of historical sources. This programme focuses on the form and content of various historical sources and media, ranging from inscriptions and coins to printed and unprinted archival materials from different eras. Students gain practical skills in the identification, analysis, and interpretation of these diverse sources, which are crucial for historical research into antiquity, the Middle Ages, and modern times.

This programme is particularly advantageous for students aiming for a master's degree in historical studies. Moreover, it prepares students for careers in archives, libraries, publishing, media, and documentation. As an additional qualification for history students, it can be studied as a supplementary subject in a 2-fach Bachelor programme, alongside a major subject, leading to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree.
