University of Veterinary Medicine Vienna·Animal Health Management
Master of Science (MSc)
The Master’s Programme in Precision Animal Health focuses on the integration of digitization into animal health management. It prepares students to understand and implement data-driven management solutions in veterinary practices. The curriculum balances theoretical knowledge with practical application, ensuring that graduates can effectively contribute to animal health care. Career outcomes include roles in veterinary consulting, animal health policy, and technology development for animal health management.
Students will study advanced methodologies in animal health, focusing on the integration of technology and veterinary science. Key topics include data analysis, health monitoring, and welfare assessment.
The programme spans four semesters with a mix of coursework and practical experience. Students must complete a thesis project that applies their learning to real-world challenges in animal health.
Graduates acquire specialized knowledge in veterinary science and data analysis. They are prepared to implement advanced health management strategies in various settings.

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.
Vetmeduni Vienna is Austria's only veterinary university, covering veterinary medicine, biomedicine, and equine science on a dedicated campus in Floridsdorf.
