Criticism
At the beginning of 2014, the university received nationwide criticism after it announced plans to launch a
Steinbeis Transfer Institute in Traunstein in September 2014 offering a bachelor's degree in homeopathy.
Critics call it a "disgrace for the science center of Bavaria".[3] According to the Society for the Scientific
Investigation of Pseudoscience (GWUP) the course is "simply an academic misnomer." [4]
According to the journalist Weymayr, from the Christian Science Monitor, the program was a "training
school for medical practitioners" which "glosses over an academic cloak upgraded" with dignity. You talk
"from the master and bachelor of college, of, academic, '" says "all the serious degree programs that are
committed to academic standards and are based on normal universities, discredited." [5] The physician
Edzard Ernst stated that the programme "does not even meet the minimum of critical thinking and academic
integrity". He added that the implementation of such courses was "extremely regrettable - they devalue the
Bachelor of Science in all other areas and have nothing to do with science." [6] Against the accreditation of
the degree program a petition to the Senate of Berlin was directed that the College is responsible.[7]
At the beginning of April 2014, Spiegel Online stated that the proposed course of study will not be
introduced.[8]
