Admission to a consecutive Doctoral Programme

Admission to a consecutive (subject related) doctoral programme can also be done subsequently to obtaining the Master's degree by registering online via TISS (field: "DOCTORAL PROGRAMME"). If you already are reported continued for the current semester, it is also possible to enrol beyond the admission period. It is not necessary to personally come into the Admission Office or submit an application for admission for this.\ "Subject related" means that for example you completed the Master's programme "Architecture" at TU Wien and now you want to start your doctoral programme in engineering science Architecture.

If you enrol beyond the admission period (summer semester April 1st to June 30th or winter semester November 1stto December 31st), the current semester will be the first semester. If you for example enrol on Mai 25th, the summer semester will be your first semester of your master's degree.

Admission to a non-consecutive Doctoral Programme

For the admission to a doctoral programme, that is not subject related to your Master's degree, you will need to submit an application for admission first. In this case you will have to fill out the respective application form and provide the necessary documents:

duly filled out and signed application form
supply a valid email-address in the respective field of the application form
document of completion of Master's/Diploma degree (officially legalised copy with official translation)
diploma supplement, transcript of records, index with ECTS and contact hours (officially legalised copy with official translation)
Summary of the Master's/Diploma thesis (abstract)
Research Proposal/Exposé
Confirmation of supervision by a professor of TU Wien
passport copy

When shall I submit my documents?

In order to obtain admission for the semester applied for, it is recommended to submit the application with all necessary documents as soon as possible and at the latest by

end of July for the winter semester
end of January for the summer semester

For applications received at a later date or if documents are missing, admission for the semester you applied for can no longer be guaranteed. In this case, the application will be valid for admission for the following semester.

Send in your documents in a timely manner, as due to the high number of applications, processing may take 10-12 weeks. Please understand that the Admissions Office cannot provide any information (neither by phone nor by email) about the processing status of your application before this processing time has expired.
