TU Wien·Electrical Engineering
Master of Science (MSc)
This Master's Programme explores the multifaceted aspects of energy, focusing primarily on electricity generation, distribution, and resource sustainability. Students delve into renewable energy sources and their integration into modern energy systems. The program equips graduates to tackle contemporary energy challenges, ensuring efficient use and reliable supply within the evolving energy landscape while emphasizing ecological considerations.
The curriculum covers energy generation, sustainable practices, and the economics of energy systems, merging technical knowledge with environmental and societal responsibilities.
Students progress through four semesters of coursework, including both project-based learning and a Master's thesis focused on practical and theoretical aspects of energy solutions.
Graduates gain expertise in electrical power systems, project management skills, and an understanding of environmental impacts, preparing them for leadership roles in the energy sector.

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.
