Course Description


The B.A. Studium Individuale empowers students to design their own academic journey: interdisciplinary, question-driven, and future-oriented. Rooted in the tradition of liberal education, the program fosters intellectual independence and critical reflection. Students explore pressing global challenges from multiple perspectives while honing vital skills like analytical thinking, academic writing, and collaborative inquiry. Supported by core modules, a minor, and complementary studies, they tailor their degree around personal goals — from climate policy to entrepreneurship or philosophy.

The admission process at Leuphana is carried out in different steps. First of all, study places are allocated in each major according to the legally prescribed advance and special quotas as well as according to the waiting time. Subsequently, the applicants with the best 25% points in each major receive admission in the so-called best quota. Admissions for the remaining study places will be given following the selection process, consisting of a study aptitude test and, if necessary, a selection interviеw.
