Bachelor of Education (BEd) / Master of Education (MEd)
The Bachelor's program in Greek focuses on the ancient Greek language and literature. Students will develop a solid understanding of Greek grammar essential for reading, understanding, and producing ancient Greek texts. The curriculum covers a wide range of preserved Greek literature and includes lectures and translation courses focusing on individual authors such as Homer, Sophocles, and Plato, as well as literary genres. Additionally, the program emphasizes the relevance of these literary texts in educational contexts.
In the Greek teaching program, students immerse themselves in ancient Greek language and literature, acquiring deep knowledge of Greek grammar necessary for reading, understanding, and composing ancient texts. The curriculum provides an overview of the rich diversity of Greek literature and engages with major authors such as Homer, Sophocles, and Plato, as well as literary genres like ancient biography.
The program spans 8 semesters for a Bachelor’s degree and 4 semesters for a Master’s degree, involving a combination of lectures and translation courses. Students are encouraged to explore thematic focuses, such as classical rhetoric and various philosophical traditions, culminating in the development of teaching content for schools.
Graduates develop competencies in ancient Greek language skills, literary analysis, and historical contextualization, enabling them to teach and interpret Greek literature effectively. They also cultivate various methods of text interpretation and an understanding of literature within broader cultural contexts.

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.
