The Teacher Education program combines artistic practice with educational theory, preparing students to teach in various settings. The curriculum emphasizes practical training through workshops and classroom experience. Graduates often pursue careers in education, art institutions, or freelance teaching roles, making significant contributions to educational innovation.
The program focuses on the intersection of art and communication practices, emphasizing visual culture and the complexities of media representation. Students explore interdisciplinary competencies, technical foundations, and engage with artistic and cultural practices.
The curriculum is structured into four main pillars: artistic and scientific practices, didactic theory, pedagogical theory, and practical schooling experience, spanning over eight semesters. Students participate in project-oriented formats and may conduct a thesis or internship.
Graduates acquire competencies in both artistic and educational practices, enabling them to teach and engage effectively within various educational contexts. They develop skills in communication, expression, and socio-cultural mediation.

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.
