FH Kufstein Tirol·Europäische Energiewirtschaft
Master of Arts in Business (M.A.)
The Master of Arts in Business program focuses on European energy economy, providing interdisciplinary knowledge that combines economic, technical, and social competencies in the energy sector. Students learn to adapt quickly to various operational roles in the energy industry, particularly in strategic management positions. With the growing relevance of energy economy in society, graduates are equipped to navigate a dynamic job market within renewable energy and energy efficiency sectors.
Students study topics relating to European energy markets, including economic and regulatory aspects. Key themes include energy supply chains, market analysis, and strategic management in energy firms.
The program is structured over four semesters and combines lectures, seminars, and project work. A master’s thesis is required, and students may also engage in internships to gain practical experience.
Graduates gain competencies in energy market analysis, strategic decision-making, and project management within the energy sector. They develop strong methodological skills and the ability to conduct independent research.

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 Kufstein Tirol focuses on international business, facility and real-estate management, and digital economy programs, with a strongly international outlook.
