The Business Administration bachelor programme integrates economics, business administration, and management skills to prepare students for international careers. It emphasizes practical, hands-on experience through internships and a curriculum focusing on project management, corporate communications, and digital transformation. Graduates are well-equipped for high-level positions in various sectors.
Students study core subjects of business administration, economics, marketing, corporate communications, and project management. They gain insights into digital transformation and work experience through internships.
The program is organized into six semesters, with the first three focusing on foundational topics. The fifth semester is dedicated to a practical internship, while the last and fourth semesters cover advanced courses and competencies.
Graduates develop a comprehensive understanding of business, management, and project handling, equipping them with cross-cultural communication skills and practical experiences from internships.

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.
