The Bachelor of Arts in TransArts focuses on the intersection of art and technology. Students explore various media and methodologies that characterize contemporary artistic practices. The program is structured to provide hands-on experience through workshops, collaborative projects, and exhibitions. Graduates can pursue careers in digital art, multimedia installations, and related fields, often leading innovative projects that blend various art forms.
Students in this program explore a range of subjects including visual arts, design principles, and contemporary art practices. The focus areas encompass both theoretical frameworks and practical applications in artistic creation and critique.
The program is organized into modular phases over several semesters, allowing for both coursework and independent projects. Students also have the opportunity to engage in an internship and complete a thesis in their final year to synthesize their learning and experience.
Graduates develop a versatile skill set that includes critical thinking, creative problem-solving, and technical proficiency in various media. They are well-prepared to navigate the complexities of the modern art and design industries.

Non-EU / third-country rate. Always confirm on the official site.
Third-country (non-EU/EEA) applicants generally need to have their prior qualifications legalised and translated for the admission application. Exact rules depend on the country that issued each document — always confirm with the university's admissions office.
Program-specific items — a CV, letter of motivation, an entrance exam (e.g. GMAT, GRE, SAT) or a portfolio — vary by degree. Check this program's requirements above and its official page.
The level of legalisation your certificates need depends on your country of origin:
Apostille
If your country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an Apostille from the competent authority of the issuing country is sufficient.
No legalisation
A small number of countries have a bilateral agreement with Austria and need no further legalisation.
Full diplomatic legalisation
For all other countries: the full chain — pre-certification by the issuing country's authorities (e.g. Ministry of Education and Ministry of Foreign Affairs), then legalisation by the competent Austrian representation (embassy/consulate).
Translations are usually done after legalisation. Check the required order with the issuing authorities and the Austrian representation.
After admission: proof of sufficient funds, health insurance and the student residence permit are part of the visa process — not university admission. We cover those in the guides.
'Die Angewandte' is Vienna's university for art, design, and architecture, known for small studio-based classes and an entrance-portfolio admission model.
