The Master's program in Multilingual Technologies at the University of Vienna prepares students with in-depth knowledge of language technologies and resources. This interdisciplinary program combines elements of translation, cultural studies, computer science, and linguistics, enabling graduates to develop expertise in multilingual solutions. Students engage in both theoretical and practical applications, enhancing their skills for careers in research and applied settings.
Students study topics in language technologies, including software development and computational methods, emphasizing the creation and use of language resources in multilingual contexts.
The program is organized into compulsory modules, elective modules, a master's thesis, and a colloquium, with a strong emphasis on both theoretical knowledge and practical training through internships.
Graduates gain competencies in language technologies, research methods, and practical skills for applying their knowledge in real-world contexts, preparing them for various roles in technology and language 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.
