Medical University of Vienna·Medical Informatics
Diplom-Ingenieur (Dipl.-Ing., DI)
The Masterstudium Medical Informatics program equips students with the knowledge to manage and analyze health data effectively. It combines information technology with medical applications, preparing graduates for careers in health information systems, data analysis, and IT in healthcare settings.
The Master's program in Medical Informatics focuses on the intersection of healthcare and information technology. Students study topics such as health data management, bioinformatics, and the development of medical software systems.
The program is organized into semesters, where students engage in core courses and electives. A significant component includes a practical project and the preparation of a master’s thesis, allowing for hands-on experience in a medical informatics context.
Graduates will achieve competencies in data analysis, system design, and project management within medical settings. They will also develop skills in programming and understanding healthcare processes.

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.
One of Europe's most storied medical schools, MedUni Vienna runs Austria's largest medical degree program alongside research-driven PhD schools, based at the Vienna General Hospital (AKH).
