The Digital Tax & Accounting bachelor program prepares students for responsibilities in the fields of tax consulting and auditing. It focuses on training capable professionals who can tackle the challenges posed by digitalization in processes and procedures within the economy. Students benefit from practical insights and connections in the industry, making them highly employable in competent firms.
Students study essential topics in digital processes, tax law, accounting, and management focusing on the digital transformation in the taxation field. They are trained in data management, business information systems, and analytics.
The program is structured into six semesters with a mix of weekends in presence and online modules, ensuring a blend of academic and practical learning. Students complete an internship to gain real-world experience before graduation.
Graduates will have the necessary skills in digital tax reporting, financial statements, and payroll accounting, making them well-prepared for various roles in accounting and consultancy.

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.
