Medical University of Innsbruck·Radiopharmaceutical Sciences
Master of Science (MSc)
The PhD program at the Department of Nuclear Medicine focuses on developing novel radiolabelled compounds for molecular imaging and therapy in oncology. The project emphasizes synthesizing peptide analogues targeting cancer cell receptors, specifically the CCK2R. It aims to enhance the pharmacokinetics of these compounds through innovative radiolabelling strategies and investigate their efficacy through laboratory and animal model studies, ultimately preparing candidates for clinical trials in PET imaging.
The program focuses on advanced medical studies, with an emphasis on integrating clinical practice and research. Students explore topics related to patient care, medical ethics, and the latest advancements in medical technology.
The program is structured into multiple phases, including core courses in the initial semesters, followed by specialized modules and a practical internship component. A thesis is also required to demonstrate mastery in a chosen area of study.
Graduates gain competencies in critical thinking, clinical reasoning, and the ability to conduct independent research. They are equipped to engage professionally within diverse healthcare settings.

EU/EEA students, within the standard study period (plus the ~€25 ÖH student union fee per semester).

Non-EU / third-country rate. Always confirm on the official site.
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.
MedUni Innsbruck is the medical hub of western Austria, offering medicine and dentistry degrees plus PhD programs tied to the Innsbruck university clinics.
