The Bachelor's program in Building Technology and Building Automation focuses on the technical aspects of constructing and managing buildings. Students engage with subjects like thermodynamics and measurement technology, emphasizing understanding and practical application. Graduates are well-prepared for various roles within the engineering sector, ensuring they meet the demands of modern construction challenges.
Students explore the fundamentals of engineering relevant to building technology. Topics may include systems design, energy efficiency, and automation processes.
The program is organized into six semesters, incorporating theoretical classes, practical projects, and a thesis.
Graduates acquire essential competencies in building technologies, project management, and interdisciplinary collaboration skills.

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.
