Am I eligible for the UNIGIS professional program?

To be eligible for the “Geographical Information Systems (UNIGIS professional)” you need to

• hold a general university entry qualification  for university / Higher education that is equivalent to the Austrian “Matura” certificate; e.g. High-School Diploma, A-level, Matriculation, Abitur. The equivalency will be checked by the program director.
• prove sufficient English language skills: language level B2 or higher according to the Common European Framework (CEF), or equivalent qualifications.

Expenses for communication, hardware or optional trips to summer schools, workshops or conferences are not covered.

In case a student exceeds the study end date, no further courses or exams can be taken. It is possible, however, to agree on a study extension with the Director of Studies, which then is subject to an additional extension fee.
