Foreword

Choosing the right degree program is a difficult task, and

it is not always clear straightaway which program may be

right for you: What am I interested in? What am I good

at? What job would I like to do in the future? What job

prospects are there for the subject that interests me?

You can find answers to these and other questions in

this Bachelor’s Degree Program Guide.

UAS Technikum Wien is Austria’s largest purely technical

university of applied sciences and offers you a wide

array of technical bachelor’s degree programs: There are

12 programs to choose from in total. These can be done

full-time or part-time. Two bachelor’s degree programs

are also offered as distance study degree programs – in

case you are unable to attend classes regularly.

A bachelor’s degree program at UAS Technikum Wien

offers you a scientifically founded and also practice-

oriented education with excellent career prospects. After

completing your bachelor’s degree, you have the option

of continuing and enhancing your education in one of

17 master’s degree programs at UAS Technikum Wien.

On the pages that follow, you can gain an overview of

our bachelor’s degree programs. Have fun reading through

them and I hope to welcome you to UAS Technikum Wien

in the near future!

Dear Prospective Student,

University of Applied Sciences Technikum Wien

Technology is exciting!

Interested in technology? Then Austria’s largest purely technical university of applied sciences is the right place for you!

At UAS Technikum Wien, you learn the technical skills needed to shape your future. And it’s not just a bunch of theory –

you get to work on exciting projects even in the bachelor’s programs:

Happy aliens!

To provide colorful aliens on a foreign planet with foodstuffs – that is the required

task in the browser-based game: Space Ranger Alien Quest. The game was

developed specifically for a younger audience in the Computer Science bachelor’s

degree program. In collaboration with the psychology department of the University

of Vienna, students incorporated tricky tasks regarding the color and shape of

the aliens. In this way, the children’s concentration and goal-directed behavior is

improved in a playful manner, while subsequent analysis by personnel specializing

in psychology is made possible at the same time.

Building control via smartphones

The new building at UAS Technikum Wien has, among other things, an automatic

shading system as well as a light and climate control system. That is exciting. But

it becomes even more exciting when you can operate these control systems via

smartphones and tablets! To this end, students of the Information and Communi -

cation Systems and Services bachelor’s degree program developed a visualization

of the building management system with software solutions from the company

NETxAutomation. This enables an independent control of the blinds as well as a

visualization of the existing light and climate control system.

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 bachelor’s

degree 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. The internship

included in the curriculum serves as a springboard for a future career for many students.

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.

Studying at UAS Technikum Wien

Bachelor’s degrees from UAS Technikum Wien are practically orientated

and provide an excellent foundation for your future career. There are

12 bachelor’s degree programs to choose from. These are offered as

full-time, part-time and/or distance study programs. 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. 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. “At UAS Technikum Wien, instruction and research go hand in hand.”

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.

From applying to studying – the admissions process

The first step towards a degree at UAS Technikum Wien is the online application for

the desired degree program at www.technikum-wien.at. After this application has

been made, you will be invited to a written placement test. Depending on the degree

program, questions from various fields (mathematics, logical thinking, English, physics,

personality) will need to be answered. Finally, applicants participate in an admissions

interview with the program director. For additional information on the admissions

procedure and application deadlines, please visit UAS Technikum Wien’s website or

contact the admin istrative assistance for the relevant degree program.

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.


“Women and technology –a promising combination”

future as well as how to dimension these systems and combine them into an integrated system for providing the world

with the power it needs. The program provides well-founded scientific knowledge that is extremely relevant for practical

application. The majority of the courses are held at UAS Technikum Wien’s second location, the innovative passive energy

office building ENERGYbase.
