Visual Impairment Education – Special Education Teaching Programs in Germany with Admission Restriction - Numerus Clausus/NC (2026/27)

Studying Visual Impairment Education as a special education teaching programme in Germany draws on the country's long-standing tradition in Blindenpädagogik, with research-intensive universities offering access to specialised diagnostic centres, low-vision laboratories, and DFG-funded projects on inclusive didactics and assistive technology development. You will explore topics such as orientation and mobility training, braille literacy instruction, psychosocial development of visually impaired learners, and evidence-based inclusive classroom design while addressing the global challenge of equitable educational access for people with sensory disabilities. With Germany's research-driven teacher education model and its strong commitment to UN-CRPD implementation, this programme provides an ideal foundation for careers as a Sonderschullehrerin/Sonderschullehrer at specialised schools for the blind and visually impaired, in inclusive mainstream settings, early intervention services, or in academic research on rehabilitation sciences and special needs education.
