FH Burgenland·Health Studies
Master of Science in Health Studies - MSc
This Master's program focuses on health issues within human resources management, providing students with the skills to design and implement health promotion projects in various contexts. It combines management training with a focus on health promotion and gives students a comprehensive overview of health-related HR practices. Graduates will be equipped to manage health initiatives in corporate settings and contribute to public health policy.
The program covers health management, project implementation in health protection, workplace health promotion, and evidence-based public health practices.
The program is structured over four semesters, with classes held every two weeks on weekends. It includes a final project and internships, enabling practical application of learned skills.
Graduates will acquire competencies in health promotion, human resource management, project management, and health research, preparing them for various roles in the health sector.

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.
