Midwifery

The dual bachelor’s degree program in midwifery qualifies students to practice the profession of midwife. In addition to qualifications specific to the profession, the acquisition of basic research skills and personal development in the context of a medical profession are also important qualification objectives. Qualifications specific to the profession include independent and evidence-based promotion and management of physiological processes during pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum and breastfeeding periods. Students learn to identify risks and abnormalities for the woman and child. The program also focuses on the science-based planning, organization, implementation, management and evaluation of highly complex care processes, taking into account efficiency, effectiveness, quality, health promotion and prevention. Qualifications for people-oriented and situation-oriented communications are taught at the same time, and students reflect on and justify their own actions while taking general legal, economic and social conditions and professional ethical values and attitudes into account. The focus is on promoting women’s independence and safeguarding their right to self-determination during the reproductive phase of life, taking into account their life situation, biographical experiences and diversity aspects. The integration of regular practical phases ensures that the theoretical learning content is directly applied in practice and the experience gained from practical application is systematically expanded in the theoretical sections.
