FH Vorarlberg·Information Technology
Master of Science (MSc)
The Master's Programme in Business Informatics integrates business and technology to prepare graduates for leadership roles in the digital economy. Students learn to assess business requirements and develop IT solutions while participating in applied research and projects with industry partners.
This program covers the intersections of business and technology, focusing on data analysis, enterprise architecture, and digital transformation strategies. Students will engage in practical projects and gain hands-on experience with modern technologies.
The curriculum is divided into core courses followed by electives, allowing students to specialize in areas such as data analytics and IT management. A significant portion of the program includes a thesis project that synthesizes learning outcomes.
Graduates emerge with a robust skill set in IT management, strategic thinking, and problem-solving capabilities relevant for high-demand roles in technology-driven organizations.

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.
