Students in mobility programmes

Double Degree

Incoming Double Degree students have to apply for admission directly at the Admissions and Examinations Office.

Erasmus+, Joint-Study

Incoming exchange students have to be nominated by their home university exclusively via our Mobility Information System (MOBIS). Once we have accepted your online nomination in MOBIS, you will receive more detailed information, such as your username and a link to set a password to access MOBIS. Please upload and submit your application within the given deadline.

Application documents sent via e-mail or post will not be accepted.
Application Deadlines:
June 1st for winter semester
Nov. 1st for summer semester

Once your application has been processed and approved, the AAU’s Admission Office will send you the Letter of Acceptance (“Bescheid”) to the e-mail address indicated in MOBIS.

The International Office is responsible for the formal revision of the Learning Agreement before the academic coordinator signs it.

The winter semester officially starts on October 1st and ends on January 31st.

The summer semester officially starts on March 1st and ends on June 30th.

Please note that some exams might be scheduled after the official end of the semester (depending on the courses you choose).

The first week of the semester is your Orientation Week. Attendance is only mandatory on our Welcome Day and Info session. You will receive a more detailed schedule of the upcoming semester’s Orientation Week prior to your arrival.

You can register for courses only after saving your correspondence address in MOBIS and paying the ÖH fee (obligatory fee for all students in Austria commissioned by the Austrian National Union of Students). Please note that course registration is not possible prior to transferring the ÖH fee.

The University of Klagenfurt offers a wide range of degree programmes.

Several lectures in various fields of studies are taught in English.

List of all lectures taught in English

Courses offered by the Department of English and American Studies are not open for students who only have a basic level of English. The Department requires a minimum level of B1/B2 (European Framework) for regular courses taught in English.

Attending the German Language Course is not compulsory for incoming exchange students. German language courses are considered as extra-curricular programme and therefore are not free of charge.

You can find more information on the Deutsch in Österreich | German in Austria website.

If you wish to stay in one of the student dormitories during your study in Klagenfurt, you can also book your accommodation via the Austrian housing agency OeAD.
