TU Wien·Quantum Information Science and Technology
Master of Science (MSc)
The Master's Programme in Quantum Information Science and Technology equips students with fundamental knowledge in quantum physics and technology. Students can specialize from a cross-faculty selection, tailoring their education to their interests and strengths. The curriculum includes modules on quantum physics and information, preparing graduates for careers in cutting-edge technology and research.
Students study topics in quantum physics and technology, alongside information science. The curriculum includes specialized modules, allowing students to tailor their learning experience according to their interests and career goals.
The program is organized into four semesters, formally integrating theoretical knowledge with practical applications. Students also have the opportunity to specialize in areas of personal interest, culminating in a thesis. Internships may be included depending on the specialization chosen.
Graduates acquire competencies in quantum technologies, programming, and analytical thinking. They develop essential skills necessary for careers in quantum information science and related fields, adapting to the rapidly evolving technology landscape.
Periods can differ for EU/EEA and non-EU applicants. Always confirm on the official site before applying.

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.
