The admission requirements for the Master's Programme in Energy and Environmental Management at the University of Applied Sciences are a completed Bachelor's programme in a relevant subject or the completion of an equivalent programme at a recognised domestic or foreign post-secondary educational institution.

DETAILS ON THE ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS FOR THE MASTER'S DEGREE PROGRAMME IN ENERGY- AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

After applying for a study place, eligible applicants are invited to a personal interview. During the admission interview, the applicant's motivation to study, communication skills, social and intercultural competence as well as any previous professional experience, English and other foreign language skills are clarified.

If the number of applicants exceeds the number of available study places, the admission procedure provides for a ranking, whereby the academic qualification (previous study career), additional qualifications (professional qualifications, certificates, etc.) as well as the admission interview are evaluated.

Application deadline: 31 May (for your better planning, a first part of the study places will already be allocated from 31 March ) - whether an application is still possible after this date can be seen HERE.

Applications that arrive at the University of Applied Sciences Master's Programme in Energy- and Environmental Management within a set deadline will be considered in the admission procedure for the coming academic year. Registration takes place via the online registration.

Deposit
After the binding allocation of a place, University of Applied Sciences Burgenland collects a deposit of € 350 from students to secure their place. This deposit is refunded to active students after the end of the first semester. If an applicant does not fulfil the admission requirements before the start of the programme (e.g. did not pass the resit of the school-leaving examination, did not pass the additional qualification examination, etc.), the deposit is also refunded. In all other cases, the deposit is forfeited.
