About univie: summer schools

univie: summer schools are short programmes (one to four weeks). They are open to international and local students, with a focus on those studying towards a master’s or doctoral degree. You can meet and learn from renowned experts and high level academics and uncover your potential as a young, active researcher. You can gain between 4 and 18 ECTS credits (depending on the chosen short programme) towards your degree programme. You will be awarded a Certificate of Attendance and receive a Transcript of Records.

Bilateral language schools provide lessons in the language of the host country for Austrian students and, in parallel, German lessons for students from the host country, with a focus on mutual language exchange (tandem approach): the students mutually assist one another in learning the language. The bilateral language schools are mainly offered in Central and Eastern European languages as well as Romance languages.

Locations and Social Programme

In most univie: summer schools the location plays an important part. In some short programmes the city or location itself is the research subject. Others offer a stimulating social programme where you can explore the region. Most programmes are held in Vienna. But other places in Austria and abroad also become locations for univie: summer schools, for example Berlin, Belgrade, Athens or the picturesque Lake Wolfgang in one of Austria’s most beautiful mountain areas.

Bilateral language schools are primarily held in the pertinent non-German-speaking country.

In the virtual rooms of online-schools you can explore new ways of intercultural socializing.
