Medical University of Vienna·Precision Medicine
Master of Science (MSc) in Molecular Precision Medicine
This master's program focuses on molecular precision medicine, integrating genetic, proteomic, and clinical data to personalize patient treatment. Students learn strategies for developing tailored therapies, which are becoming increasingly critical in modern healthcare. The program fosters a multidisciplinary approach combining science and clinical practice.
In the Master of Molecular Precision Medicine, students explore topics related to genomics, biochemistry, and biomedical informatics. The curriculum focuses on the application of precision medicine in clinical settings, emphasizing the interconnections between molecular biology and therapeutic strategies.
The program is structured over four semesters, integrating theoretical coursework with practical laboratory training. Students also undertake a thesis project, which often involves internships at various research institutions or healthcare settings.
Graduates develop competencies in data analysis, molecular diagnostics, and patient-centered care. They acquire skills in research methodologies and principles underlying precision medicine, preparing them to contribute effectively in interdisciplinary teams.

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).
