The Master in International Business Studies develops strategic and management capabilities for operating in a global business environment. The program balances in-depth theoretical knowledge with real-world business practices. Students engage in case studies, team projects, and international experiences, which enhance their readiness for senior roles in business.
The curriculum covers advanced topics in strategic management, marketing, and entrepreneurship. Students explore the implications of globalization on business practices and strategies.
The program is conducted over four semesters, involving a blend of theoretical coursework and applied projects. A capstone project and an internship are integral parts of the degree, designed to provide practical experience.
Graduates gain advanced skills in business strategy, international relations, and management, equipping them for leadership roles in diverse organizations.

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.
