Undergraduate studies
The organization of the currently running programme includes a large number of electives, enabling the students to pursue their special interests, while the compulsory courses (which are now taught in relatively small groups of students) secure the grounding of a solid basis of knowledge, necessary to the professional working in the area of early childhood education.
