University of Klagenfurt·Computer Science
Master of Science (MSc)
This Master's program focuses on the integration of AI technologies within cybersecurity frameworks. Students learn about advanced computational techniques to protect systems and data against cyber threats. Graduates will be ready to tackle challenges in ensuring data privacy and security in various applications.
Students focus on the interplay between machine learning, cybersecurity principles, and emerging technologies. Topics include data protection, ethical considerations, and innovative AI applications to security challenges.
The program is organized across four semesters, culminating in a master's thesis. It includes practical internships and research projects to foster hands-on learning.
Graduates gain expertise in both AI and cybersecurity, positioning them for leadership roles. They develop strong analytical, technical, and problem-solving skills relevant to multiple sectors.

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.
