FH Vorarlberg·International Business
Bachelor of Arts in Business
The Double Degree Bachelor in International Business allows students to study at both FHV and KdG in Belgium, culminating in two recognized degrees. The program combines academic coursework with practical projects and a thesis that involves both universities.
This program covers essential areas of international business, enabling students to navigate the complexities of operating in a global market.
The curriculum includes compulsory courses spread over 6 semesters, concluding with an internship and a thesis project that integrates learning from both institutions.
Graduates acquire knowledge and skills for roles in international business, emphasizing analytical thinking, strategic planning, and communication.

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.
