FHWien der WKW·Business Administration
Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA)
The Executive MBA Leadership course is tailored for middle managers, entrepreneurs, and project managers. It focuses on developing leadership competencies through practical tools and theoretical knowledge, allowing participants to reflect on their behavior and enhance their management skills. The program helps professionals achieve their career goals by integrating academic insights with real-world applications.
The program encompasses leadership theories, management skills, team dynamics, and personal effectiveness. It emphasizes practical application and integration of learned concepts into everyday work.
This part-time program is structured into modular blocks with attendance and self-study units, culminating in a Master’s thesis and examination.
Graduates will acquire advanced leadership skills, a comprehensive understanding of management systems, and the ability to apply coaching techniques in their organization.

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.
