FH Upper Austria·Engineering
Bachelor of Science in Engineering
The Innovation, Product & Engineering Management program prepares students to manage and innovate in product development. It integrates engineering principles with design and marketing skills to create successful products. Students will engage in hands-on projects and internships, providing real-world experience in various industries.
Students study innovation management, engineering technology, design principles, and marketing strategies. The curriculum emphasizes creative solutions and problem-solving in real-world contexts.
The program spans six semesters with project-based learning, culminating in a bachelor thesis and a 10-week internship. Students are encouraged to study abroad and engage in extracurricular projects.
Graduates will develop competencies in engineering, management, and innovative thinking. They will be equipped to lead projects and work collaboratively in diverse teams.

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 Upper Austria is one of Austria's strongest research FHs, with focused campuses in Hagenberg (IT), Wels (engineering), Steyr (management), and Linz (medical technology).
