Bachelor of Education (BEd)
The Bachelor's program in Nutrition and Household provides theoretical introductions to the scientific and social foundations of human nutrition. Students will engage in practical work in the teaching kitchen, mastering techniques for nutrient-friendly preparation of foods. The curriculum emphasizes healthy eating standards, nutritional recommendations for specific population groups, and the scientific exploration of various diets.
Students explore topics in natural sciences relating to nutrition and food preparation techniques. The program includes elements of nutritional science, dietary recommendations, and an emphasis on practical application in educational settings.
The program is organized into eight semesters, combining theoretical coursework with practical kitchen experiences and educational methodology. Students engage with various food topics through hands-on learning and excursions.
Graduates acquire competencies in nutritional science, teaching methodologies, and food preparation skills, enabling them to educate others on healthy eating practices and culinary techniques.

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.
The University of Salzburg (PLUS) covers humanities, law, natural and life sciences, and digital cultures in one of Austria's most attractive student cities.
