Im Masterstudium Umwelt- und Bioressourcenmanagement werden Studierende auf die komplexen Herausforderungen des Umwelt- und Ressourcenmanagements vorbereitet. Die Ausbildung bietet eine fundierte wissenschaftliche Grundlage, um ökologische, ökonomische und soziale Aspekte in Projekte zu integrieren.
The program focuses on sustainability in natural resource management, exploring areas such as environmental protection, agricultural technologies, and landscape architecture. Students engage in topics related to ecosystem dynamics, climate change impacts, and innovative land use strategies.
The program is organized across several phases including foundational courses in the first semesters, followed by specialized modules. Students culminate their studies with a thesis project, often incorporating internships to gain practical experience in the field.
Graduates gain competencies in scientific research, data analysis, and project management. They are equipped with skills to develop sustainable practices and strategies to address environmental challenges.

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.
BOKU (University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna) specialises in agriculture, forestry, environmental engineering, and biotechnology — the go-to university for sustainability-focused study in Austria.
