This Master program is designed to deepen and complement academic vocational training based on the prior Bachelor's degree. It typically encompasses a duration of two years or four semesters, wherein students will focus on advanced studies within various fields. Graduates will be conferred the academic degree of Master according to the respective curriculum.
Students will study advanced topics in their chosen field, emphasizing research and practical application of knowledge. Core areas may include theoretical foundations, applied methods, and case studies relevant to industry practices.
The program is organized into four semesters, comprising foundational courses in the first year and specialized modules in the second. A significant component includes a thesis project that applies learned concepts in a real-world context.
Graduates will gain competencies in analytical thinking, problem-solving, and effective communication. They will be equipped with skills necessary for professional practice in their respective fields.

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.
