Bachelor Programmes

  • At the beginning of the semester we offer an orientation session Orientierungsveranstaltung for BA and for BEd beginners with some more information on your first semester and the possibility to ask questions. Please register for your session via u:find/u:space  “Orientierungsveranstaltung” by the previous evening. You won’t be able to register if you have not completed your admission to the university (“Zulassung”). On the day of the “Orientierungsveranstaltung”, please log on Moodle, find the course in your Dashboard and enter the stream. 

  • You need to sign up for the STEOP (Studieneingangs- und orientierungsphase) lectures and and pass the corresponding exams in the first semester in order to be able to register for further courses at the department. More detailed information here: STEOP.

    NB: The STEOP lectures are offered only in the winter term. In the summer term students can sign up for the tutorials and take the corresponding exams in May/June.

    Note for BEd: Grammar in Use is not a STEOP lecture, but can be taken in the first semester already. Please note that you can only take the exam after you pass the STEOP exams first.

  • VELT: one of the first things you will need to do, is take part in our obligatory language test. You can find more information about it here: Vienna English Language Test (VELT).

    If you don't pass the VELT in the first semester you can pass the test in your second semester - this will not delay your studies.

  • If you did not study Latin at school you will need to do the “Ergänzungsprüfung”. We advise you to find out if you have to sit the exam and start preparing for it in your first semester already. Consult https://ssc-philkultur.univie.ac.at/studium/zusatz-und-ergaenzungspruefungen/
