Studying at UAS Technikum Wien

Building on a bachelor’s degree or an other equivalent academic degree,

a master’s degree from UAS Technikum Wien provides an excellent

foundation for professional life in the future. UAS Technikum Wien offers

17 master’s degree programs, which are offered as full-time, part-time

and/or distance study degree programs. Five of the master’s degree

programs are conducted in English. This allows students to choose the

degree program that fits their needs.

The benefits speak for themselves

There are a limited number of spaces for each degree program at UAS

Technikum Wien. This keeps the seminar groups small and ensures that

there are enough lab spaces for everyone. The predefined curriculum

means that the degree programs can be completed within a fixed program

duration of two to four semesters. And graduates of the largest purely

technical university of applied sciences in Austria are highly sought-after

in business and have excellent career opportunities.

Technology + business + personality

The main focus of education at UAS Technikum Wien is, of course,

on technical knowledge. However, more than this is often needed to

be successful in your future career. For this reason, much emphasis is

also placed on languages, business and personal development subjects,

in addition to the high-quality technical education.

Theory and practice

The combination of theory and practical application is of central importance in both

research and instruction. In addition to an extensive theoretical education, all programs

at UAS Technikum Wien include the practical application of the skills learned in projects.

Many of these projects are conducted in cooperation with or on behalf of well-known

international and Austrian companies and institutions. In the course of such projects

students often get to know their future employers at a very early stage.

Strong partners in business

The research and development activities at UAS Technikum Wien have grown significantly

in recent years. The R&D activities are relevance-oriented. Numerous contract R&D

activities are performed in close cooperation with industry and business. The research

activities are often part of the curriculum and help to ensure that the institution offers

a high-quality, internationally recognized education. Since many instructors come from

the business sector themselves, a valuable exchange occurs whereby everyone benefits.

“At UAS Technikum Wien, instruction and research go hand in hand.”

From applying to studying – the admissions process

Prospective students interested in a master’s degree program at UAS Technikum Wien

can apply online any time on our web site. The main component of the admissions

process is a personal interview between the prospective student and the program

director. Some degree programs also require applicants to take a written test in the

relevant field. You can obtain more detailed information about the admissions process

and application deadlines on UAS Technikum Wien’s website or from the relevant

degree program’s administrative assistant.

Women and technology

Even today, few women decide to pursue a technical education or a technical career

although the field offers creativity, freedom, teamwork and, last but not least, good

advancement and salary opportunities. UAS Technikum Wien would like to get more

women interested in technical education programs and therefore takes measures that

are specially geared towards supporting women and alleviating their apprehensions.

Technology is international

Knowledge is mobile and mobility increases knowledge. Students at UAS Technikum

Wien have the opportunity to study at one of our more than 125 partner institutions

worldwide or to do internships abroad in order to improve their language skills and

gain international experience. Students are supported in this area by the Center for

International Relations, which among other things, provides assistance with student

exchanges and internships abroad as well as with the procurement of financial support.

The bachelor’s and master’s degree system

The UAS Technikum Wien was the first university of applied sciences in Austria to

switch to bachelor’s and master’s degrees. The system not only improves the international

comparability of academic degrees; it also offers a great deal of flexibility in shaping

the course of one’s education. For example, it is possible to embark on a career after

completing a bachelor’s degree and at the same time complete a master’s degree program

part-time. Additional advantages of the system include increased student mobility and

the enhanced attractiveness of the academic courses on offer for foreign students.

“Women and technology –a promising combination”

“Students have the opportunity to study at one of more than 125 partner institutions worldwide.”

Whether for traffic management in the traditional sense or for high-tech traffic information systems, satellite navigation,

eTicketing, road pricing or section control, our current and future mobility requirements can only be met by intelligent,

secure and efficient management and control applications. Intelligent Transport Systems represents the missing link

between intelligent vehicles, intelligent infrastructure and people. The Intelligent Transport Systems degree program

is offered as a multiple degree program in cooperation with Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU) and Linköping

University (LiU). Students can complete parts of their studies at these three institutions and earn up to three separate

master’s degrees. For more information, please visit www.em-its.eu.

Technology is creative.

Robots are the perfect machines – and we are only at the beginning of a trend that will play a decisive role in defining

the future. Mechatronics/Robotics is a fascinating, technical landscape that combines the traditional engineering disciplines

of mechanical engineering, electronics and computer science. The seamless integration of these disciplines makes it possible

to create products with enhanced functionality and abilities that were unfeasible until now. This increasing complexity

requires an equally complex, cutting-edge education, which is just what the Mechatronics/Robotics master’s degree

program has to offer.
