University of Vienna. - Georg Herder
The University of Vienna is the oldest university in the German-speaking world and one of the largest in Central Europe. Thus, with more than 180 courses and about 93,000 students as well as staff of 9,600 employees, it is also the largest educational and scientific institution in Austria.
The Postgraduate Center is the University of Vienna's center for continuing education and training. Our postgraduate programs enable you to acquire interdisciplinary, occupational and additional qualifications. Our continuing education and training programs are subject to the University’s quality assurance criteria that meet international standards. Most curricula are part-time programs.
The range of continuing education and training programs at the University of Vienna includes certificate courses, university continuing education and training programs and master’s programs.
Certificate courses are compact continuing education and training programs. This type of program is rather short (e.g. 15 ECTS credits). Therefore, it is particularly suitable for working people. We offer continuing education and training programs in the following areas:
- Education & Social Care
- Health & Natural Sciences
- International Affairs & Business
- Communication & Media
- Law
Therefore, the Postgraduate Center is the first point of contact for all continuing education and training programs. If you require initial counselling or have questions regarding registration or study documents, please contact the Service Center or the responsible Program Management.
