The Department guarantees a bachelor study programme in Kindergarten Education, both in the full-time and combined form, a master study programme in Education for the 1st to 5th Grade of Elementary School, both in full-time and combined form, and master study programme in Education for the 1st to 5th Grade of Elementary School and Special Education in both forms of study.<\/p>\n
