The Green Mechatronics program integrates mechanics, electronics, and software with a focus on robotics and automation. Students learn to design reliable, efficient technical systems, considering their entire lifecycle. Practical projects in modern labs enhance theoretical knowledge. Sustainability is a key theme throughout the curriculum, preparing students for environmentally-aware engineering.
Students learn about the mechanical, electronic, and digital fundamentals of modern systems, including control engineering and industrial automation. They work with models and simulations to analyze processes and apply eco-design principles.
The program is organized over six semesters, culminating in a bachelor's thesis and an internship, helping students integrate their knowledge in practical settings and prepare for professional responsibilities.
Graduates gain a solid foundation in engineering principles and develop skills in problem-solving, technical integration, and sustainable design. They are equipped for various roles in technology-driven industries.

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.
FH Kärnten spreads engineering, health, and business programs across Carinthian campuses in Villach, Klagenfurt, Feldkirchen, and Spittal, with several English-taught degrees.
