This bachelor's degree program focuses on developing skills in engineering and management. It combines technical knowledge with business administration, preparing students for the increasingly complex demands in industry. Graduates can expect to pursue careers in various sectors, including manufacturing, consulting, and project management.
Students study topics that integrate engineering principles with management practices. The curriculum emphasizes both technical skills and business acumen in order to meet industry demands.
The program is organized into six semesters, including hands-on projects and internships. Students also complete a thesis project in their final semester, applying their learned knowledge in a real-world context.
Graduates acquire a strong foundation in engineering principles and business management, enabling them to efficiently tackle challenges in various technical and managerial roles.

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.
