The Biomedical Sciences program combines the study of biology, medicine, and technology to prepare students for careers in healthcare and research. Emphasis is placed on practical learning through laboratory work and clinical placements, ensuring graduates have relevant experience for their future careers.
Topics covered include biology, chemistry, and health sciences, focusing on the methodologies and technologies utilized in the medical field. The curriculum incorporates both theoretical knowledge and practical skills essential for future biomedical analysts.
The program is organized into six semesters, combining lectures with practical training and internships in healthcare environments. Students complete a thesis in their final semester, integrating their learning experiences throughout the program.
Graduates gain a comprehensive understanding of biomedical sciences and practical experience in laboratory and research settings. They develop competencies in diagnostics and medical research, preparing them for various roles in healthcare.

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.
