The Dietetics and Nutrition program prepares students to work as nutrition experts in various settings, focusing on nutritional assessment, diet planning, and public health initiatives. The blend of theoretical knowledge and hands-on practice ensures readiness for the professional fields.
Topics include nutrition science, diet therapy, and culinary practices, aimed at understanding the role of nutrition in health and disease prevention.
The program takes six semesters, involving both classroom learning and practical experiences, including a capstone project and internships in dietary settings.
Graduates acquire skills in dietary management, nutritional counseling, and public health strategies, paving the way for impactful careers in health and nutrition.

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.
