University of Applied Arts Vienna·Art & Science
Master of Science (MSc)
The Master's program in Art & Science integrates artistic practices with scientific methodologies. It challenges students to develop projects that merge these two fields, promoting innovative thought. Graduates emerge as forward-thinking individuals capable of addressing complex environmental and cultural issues.
This program investigates the synergistic relationship between art and science, focusing on collaborative projects that engage with global challenges. Students are encouraged to explore novel approaches to problem-solving.
The curriculum is divided into core modules addressing both theoretical frameworks and practical applications. Students participate in collaborative projects and complete a thesis or final project within their area of interest.
Graduates possess a unique ability to merge artistic intuition with scientific analysis, equipping them with the tools necessary for innovative research and development in diverse fields.

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.
