Sources
- Degree programmes https://www.uni-heidelberg.de/en/study/all-subjects
Heidelberg catalog lists bachelor, state examination and medical programmes with fixed programme rules and different durations.
- Bachelor combinations https://www.uni-heidelberg.de/en/study/fields-of-study/bachelor
The bachelor page distinguishes 100% single subject, major subject 75% plus minor subject 25%, and two subjects weighted 50% each.
Because both major/minor and an equally weighted two-subject route are available, this supports the double-major level on the program-choice axis.
- Cross-disciplinary skills https://www.ibw.uni-heidelberg.de/de/studium/uebergreifende-kompetenzen
For the checked bachelor major, the source states a 20-credit Cross-Disciplinary Skills module.
Credits can be selected from offerings for auditors of all faculties, the key-skills unit, and other university courses with subject relevance; this confirms a free interdisciplinary elective block.
