Applicants may require legalization of documents from countries other than Austria in order for them to have the evidential value of domestic public documents. Information on the required legalizations can be found here in PDF format.
For documents that are neither in German nor English, a translation by a sworn and court-certified interpreter is required. Your original documents should have all the necessary legalization stamps before translation so that the stamps are also translated. The translation must be firmly attached to the original document or a legalized copy.
As part of your online application, upload scans of your original documents including all required legalization stamps. For documents not issued in German or English, scans of the corresponding translations must also be uploaded. The head of the study program decides on the equivalence of international (higher) education qualifications. Therefore, your documents can only be checked as part of the ongoing application process.
Your path to studying at Hochschule Campus Wien (HCW) begins with your registration on our application platform. In your online account, you can start your application directly or activate a reminder if the application phase has not yet started.
Please note that you may apply for only one program format (full-time or part-time) per academic year. You cannot change your program format after submitting your application.

Relevant admission requirement for the bachelor's degree program
The relevant admission requirement is a general university entrance qualification or a relevant professional qualification.
If you do not currently have a certificate, please upload your complete certificate (all pages) from the last completed school level.
German level C1 - proof of language skills
For admission, German language skills of at least level C1 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) must be provided.
The following applies as proof:
Proof of a higher language level is also valid.
Proof for admission to the 3rd semester, if applicable
Your application is valid once you have completely uploaded the required documents. If you do not have all the documents at the time of your online application, please submit them immediately upon receipt by email to the administration of your study program (see section “Contact”).
After completing your online application, you will receive an email confirmation with information on the next steps.
The admission procedure includes a written test and an interview with the admission committee and takes place at the Hochschule Campus Wien.
Applicants are then interviewed for admission, which gives a first impression of their personal suitability. The questions asked include professional motivation, professional understanding, performance behavior, problem solving and reflective ability. Each part of the test is evaluated with points.
The admissions committee (heads of depgree programs and department representatives) allocates the study places on the basis of the ranking. The entire process, as well as all test results and evaluations of the admission procedure, are documented in a transparent and comprehensible manner.
You will receive the invitation to the admission procedure (incl. your assigned interview appointment) after a positive review of all relevant documents.
Approximately 2-3 working days before your appointment, you will receive the exact schedule for the admission interviews.
Due to the increased time required for the admission interviews, additional admission dates may be scheduled - this depends on the number of applicants.
Dates for the admission procedure (preview)
The dates are assigned and cannot be freely chosen.
You will probably receive information in mid July 2026 as to whether we can offer you a study place, whether you are placed on the waiting list, or whether you did not pass the admission procedure.
Please note that there will be a team building workshop for our freshmen probably in the second half of August 2026.
Participation is mandatory! (Detailed information will follow in due time).
The entrance test for the admission to the 3rd semester is only held once a year:
Friday, June 26th, 2026 (only applies to applicants who meet the admission requirements. For more information, see the Application tab above).
During our online infosessions, we will present the main areas of focus of the bachelor's degree program offered by the Department of Building and Design. We will provide you with information about the content of the degree program and give you an overview of your excellent career opportunities. Afterwards, there will be plenty of time for questions and discussion.
In the 20 years and more that Hochschule Campus Wien has been running civil engineering programs, the university of applied sciences has built up a wealth of expertise and a broad network that offers you numerous possibilities during your program, when seeking an internship and when embarking on a career. This network includes construction firms such as STRABAG SE, which also cooperates with Hochschule Campus Wien in the further education of its staff. In addition, you can work on R&D projects during your studies and thus help to shape the dialog between practice and science at Hochschule Campus Wien and nurture further contacts for your professional future. To give one example, the faculty, in partnership with Vienna University of Technology and Graz University of Technology, is developing a practical engineering model to determine actual shear resistance in existing reinforced concrete bridges where this appears to be too low for continued use according to current calculation models. Elsewhere we offer regular training through our series of seminars dealing with selected topics from the construction business. Practical relevance is also guaranteed at our Campus Lecture evenings, which are open to all and feature contributions from prominent experts.
The combination of structural engineering, economics and soft skills makes this generalist degree program a practical education for all-round civil engineers. As a graduate, you are up to the demanding tasks of construction site project management and can immediately take on a role in any construction company. In addition to the content and excellent career prospects, the Hochschule Campus Wien degree program provides numerous other advantages: You will learn in small groups and benefit from the excellent Hochschule Campus Wien network with top companies such as STRABAG SE, ÖBB and many more. Alone the excellent reputation the degree program enjoys in the construction industry is a useful building block for your career.
Your educational background has given you a solid foundation in technology, business and personal development; you have also covered the core subjects of construction management, the construction industry, fundamentals of design, civil engineering and theory and structural engineering.
