The Master's program in Art Education integrates artistic practice with educational theory, focusing on teaching methodologies within diverse cultural contexts. Students will learn how to develop and implement innovative teaching strategies that foster creativity and critical thinking among learners. Graduates will be equipped for careers as educators in various settings, including schools and community organizations.
The program focuses on a variety of art and design disciplines, integrating theoretical knowledge with practical skills. Students explore topics such as visual communication, digital media, and contemporary artistic practices.
The program is organized into several phases, with both mandatory modules and elective courses spread across multiple semesters. It culminates in a final thesis project, allowing students to apply their knowledge in a practical context.
Graduates acquire a diverse skill set, including critical thinking, technical proficiency in design and media, and the ability to conceptualize and execute artistic projects. They are equipped to navigate complex visual environments and adapt to the evolving art landscape.

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.
