The Bachelor in Computer Science focuses on software engineering and applied computer science, empowering graduates to design and implement digital solutions in various fields. The program integrates artificial intelligence as a key subject, preparing students for modern job markets. With a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical experience through an internship and a final thesis, graduates become well-equipped professionals in IT.
Students study information technologies, software engineering, and project management to prepare for various roles in IT. They explore topics such as computer systems and security along with practical skills in software development and project execution.
The program is structured over 6 semesters, concluding with a bachelor's thesis and an internship. Courses are offered in a combination of lectures and hands-on projects to ensure students gain real-world experience throughout their studies.
Graduates are well-versed in current information technologies and analytical methods. They possess competencies in software development, project management, and the ability to analyze and address complex IT challenges.

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.
