The Code and Interactive Systems Master's program is an advanced applied computer science and software engineering degree designed to address the demands of today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape. It equips students with the knowledge and skills to develop innovative software solutions across domains such as augmented and virtual reality, gaming, mobile applications, web technologies, and internet-based systems.
Students study advanced topics in computer science and software engineering, focusing on practical applications in technology. The curriculum includes specialized courses in areas like game development and web technologies.
The program spans four semesters with a mix of on-campus and online lessons, including project weeks and practical projects that run across multiple semesters. Students also have the opportunity to work on real-world applications.
Graduates gain expertise in software development, project management, and interdisciplinary collaboration, preparing them for roles in technology innovation and application.

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.
