The Bachelor program in Green Transition Engineering provides a comprehensive and practical education in various fields of transformation including ecological, economic, and social aspects. Students learn to analyze environmental data and apply technical applications related to sustainability. The program focuses on data-driven solutions for the challenges of sustainability and emphasizes practical experience through interdisciplinary projects and internships. It prepares graduates for a diverse range of roles in sectors committed to green transformation and sustainability.
Students will study topics such as sustainability, digital transformation in engineering, and methods of data analysis. The program also emphasizes the integration of ecological and economic principles in environmental decision-making.
The program is organized into six semesters, structured around various modules, practical projects, and a mandatory internship in the final phase. The final semester requires students to complete a Bachelor Thesis.
Graduates will possess comprehensive knowledge in sustainability practices, data analysis, and project management. They will be equipped to contribute effectively to interdisciplinary teams working on sustainability projects.

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.
