The Bachelor’s program in Business and Law offers a comprehensive education in accounting, taxation, controlling, and information systems along with legal studies. It prepares students to be multidisciplinary professionals who can effectively communicate legal concepts within companies. Graduates are well-equipped for various career opportunities including legal advisory and positions in public administration, finance, or as entrepreneurs. They also have access to the Master’s program in Business Law, which opens more legal career paths.
In the Bachelor program of Economics and Law, students cover a range of interdisciplinary topics such as accounting, taxation, controlling, and legal information systems, alongside foundational legal knowledge. The course is designed to equip students with the skills necessary to operate effectively in business environments while understanding legal frameworks.
The program spans six semesters and includes both theoretical and practical components. Students participate in internships and must complete a bachelor's thesis, ensuring they gain hands-on experience and a solid understanding of the subject matter throughout their studies.
Graduates emerge as well-rounded professionals proficient in business operations and legal principles, capable of managing corporate legal matters and providing informed decisions. They develop critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and a comprehensive understanding of both the business landscape and relevant laws.

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.
