General questions on applying for a scholarship, scholarships for undergraduate & graduate students, scholarships for doctoral candidates.

How and when can I apply for an OeAD scholarship?

It depends on the scholarship programme. First, you should search our database – www.grants.at – where you can find an overview of possible scholarship programmes for international students wishing to study in Austria. You will find all relevant information concerning the application process, e.g. the application deadline and all information on the documents to be submitted. You will have to submit the application online and a selection committee will check your application.

Is it only the OeAD that funds foreign students in Austria? If not, what are some of the other donors?

The OeAD is the most important provider of scholarships, but there are also other institutions offering support. You can find an overview of possible scholarship programmes in our database - www.grants.at . Further, check local institutions in your home country, as some of them also offer scholarships for study and research stays in Austria.

Is there an age limit for an OeAD scholarship?

It depends on the scholarship programme. Please bear in mind that there are different scholarship programmes offered by the OeAD and other institutions. You should always check the requirements of the specific programme you are applying for.

What is included in the scholarship? Are accommodation and health insurance included?

Most OeAD scholarships include a monthly scholarship (depends on the target group). If necessary, accident and health insurance will be taken out on behalf of the grant recipient. The costs for insurance and accommodation have to be paid out of the grant by the recipient of the grant. The OeAD also tries to provide accommodation (student hall of residence or flat) for recipients of grants who wish to have accommodation arranged by the OeAD. Monthly costs: 220 to 550 EUR (depending on how much comfort the recipients of grants want). An administration fee of 18 EUR per month is payable to the OeAD for arranging accommodation.

Are there any special scholarships for people from certain countries?

It depends on the scholarship programme. You may choose your home country and study field in our database www.grants.at to see which scholarship programmes are offered for students from your specific country.

I want to do a master's in Austria. Are there any scholarships I can apply for?

We – the OeAD – do not offer any scholarships for a whole degree programme (bachelor’s, master’s or PhD) here in Austria. You can search our database www.grants.at for other funding possibilities. However, there are hardly any scholarships for a whole degree programme here in Austria. One possibility would be to apply for an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's Degree. Applicants with all nationalities can apply for scholarships - there is no geographical restriction.

When should I start applying for a scholarship? After I receive admission notification or after I come to the university and register?

The deadline for applying depends on the individual scholarship programme. In some cases, you can apply without yet having formal admission to the Austrian university. In other cases, admission is one of the requirements. Please always check the scholarship announcements. You should inform yourself as soon as possible about the different scholarship opportunities in your country to make sure that you will have enough time to complete your application successfully before the deadline.

I am already studying in Austria, but without a scholarship. I want to know if l can still apply for a scholarship once l have started with my studies in Austria?

After you have started with your studies in Austria, you cannot apply for an OeAD scholarship. However, you can search in our database www.grants.at for other possible funding opportunities.

I want to study for a PhD in Austria, is there a scholarship I can apply for?

We – the OeAD – do not offer any scholarships for a whole doctoral/PhD programme in Austria. You can search our database www.grants.at for other funding possibilities. However, there are hardly any scholarships for a whole degree programme here in Austria. Postgraduates pursuing a doctoral/PhD programme anywhere outside Austria wishing to perform research in Austria are eligible for the Ernst Mach Grant – worldwide. You can find further funding options for research stays in Austria on www.grants.at.

I'm looking for a PhD position in Austria. Where can I find out more about open job vacancies for researchers?

You can find job vacancies and fellowships in Euraxess Jobs.

PhD in Austria Austria is an attractive country for international PhD students

Austria is home to over 50 institutions of higher education. Given its strong cultural scene, natural beauty and low living expenses, it is not surprising that Austria attracts international students seeking to do their PhDs.

PhD in Austria for international students: Overview

Requirements for applying as a phd student in austria, phd programmes in austria, austria phd scholarships, phd salary in austria.

If you are an international student interested in doing your PhD in Austria, you might be wondering how PhD programmes in Austria are structured, and which institutions offer them?

Austria has 60 higher educational institutions granting PhDs . They are divided into the following three sectors :

• 22 public universities ( öffentliche Universitäten )
• 21 Universities of Applied Sciences ( Fachhochschulen )
• 17 accredited private universities ( Privatuniversitäten )

Instead of advertising specific doctoral research projects, Austrian universities generally offer PhD programmes focusing on specific areas . As a PhD student in Austria, you can expect to take courses regarding your topic and methodology in addition to performing original research, typically under the supervision of a faculty member. While Universities of Applied Sciences do not award PhDs, some may offer professional doctorate programmes in partnership with universities.

Most institutions will want you to submit a completed application form along with official transcripts of past qualifications, degree certificates, reference letters and an accompanying personal statement. You can apply to most universities simply by submitting an application form online along with all necessary application documents . It is a good idea to check with your university, however, since you may need to submit some documents by post. You should also inquire after specifications regarding translations of application documents. Bear in mind that most Austrian PhD programmes will have set application deadlines owing to their curricula.

A PhD programme in Austria will normally require you to have a master’s degree in an appropriate subject that is worth 180 ECTS (European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System) or equivalent. In certain cases, it might be possible to study a PhD with just a bachelor’s degree, however this is likely to make your PhD longer and will require more coursework. Some PhD programmes may also set entrance examinations to ensure applicants have the right skills and experience to tackle more specific research.

Most students attend public university programmes offered in German or English. You may need to prove your competency in German at the B2 or C1 level of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. You can do this by taking the Österreichisches Sprachdiplom Deutsch , Austria’s officially-recognised examination for German as a foreign language.

Once you have been accepted, you may need to organise a visa to begin your studies. If you are from an EU/EEA country, you will not need a visa but must register with the local authorities within three months of arrival. If you are from a non-EU/EEA country, you will need to apply for a Residence Visa D ( Aufenthaltsvisum D ), which allows you to enter Austria for up to six months and apply for a Residence Permit – Student ( Aufenthaltsbewilligung – Studierender ) during that time.

Austrian universities differentiate between doctorates ( Doktorate) and PhDs. PhD programmes are often targeted at a university’s own research associates while doctorate programmes are also open to students who are not employed at the university. These are the most common PhD qualifications in Austria:

• Doctor of Arts
• Doctor of Economic Sciences
• Doctor of Medical Science
• Doctor of Natural Sciences
• Doctor of Psychotherapy Science
• Doctor of Technical Sciences

Students have at least one academic advisor who guides and mentors them during their PhDs and typically complete research towards their thesis over the course of three years. The Austrian academic year runs from October to September and is made up of a winter semester (1 October to 30 January) and a summer semester (1 March to 30 September). 

Austrian PhD programmes typically follow a set curriculum involving organised study and training as well as independent research. For the first part, you will complete courses designed to advance your subject knowledge and develop practical research skills. These will be assigned a credit value and organised in a similar way to the classes and seminars that make up bachelor’s and master’s degrees.

Towards the end of your first year, you will decide upon an original research topic suited to your programme . This will need to be formally proposed to your supervisor and/or other senior researchers. This process may also involve an examination to confirm you are ready to make the step up to the independent research stage of your PhD.

Austrian PhDs use the ECTS credit system in accordance with the Bologna Process. A doctorate is worth 180 credits , all of which must be earned in order to gain the PhD qualification. Once your thesis is finished, you must present it to an examination committee before defending it in a process known as the Rigorosum .

International students enjoy low tuition fees at many institutions in Austria compared to other European countries ; some pay no tuition fees at all, provided they complete their degrees on time (within six to eight semesters). Be that as it may, you will still need funding to cover your costs of living . It can take the form of a scholarship, an employment contract, or a fellowship.

Scholarships are available for international students who want to earn their PhDs in Austria. However, there are almost no scholarships for complete degree programmes in Austria, which of course includes PhDs. The Austrian Exchange Service ( Österreichischer Austauschdienst, OeAD ) runs a database , which contains an overview of funding opportunities for PhDs in Austria for international students and provides all relevant information concerning the application process.

If you are awarded a position at a university, you will be expected to assist with teaching, lab demonstrations and some administrative responsibilities according to the terms of contract. These tasks will increase your PhD workload, but they also provide excellent experience and additional material for your CV.

With our Job-Mail, you will receive suitable job ads as well as interesting content matching your search profile  on a weekly basis.

Your salary as a PhD student depends on how many hours you work, the type of work you perform, and your university . The best source of precise and current information is your prospective university. You can contact your prospective department and inquire after employment and salaries, and human resources websites may provide general information for your specific institution.

As a PhD student working at a university or research institution in Austria, your salary will fall within the B1 bracket, according to the Collective Bargaining Agreement of sections 98 and 99 of the 2002 Universities Act.

The gross monthly salary of the B1 salary bracket amounts to €3,277.30. The figure offered will vary from institution to institution, but this is a typical salary offer for people with qualifications that PhD students also possess. Permanent staff members of institutions in this band can expect that figure to increase over time.

Blair Professor of Musicology Cynthia Cyrus is currently in Austria on a nine-week research trip, as she continues her studies of the Thalbach convent in Bregenz. Cyrus will be visiting the Austrian National Library in Vienna and topical archives housed in Innsbruck. She began her research on the topic during a 2019 trip to the same area.

Much of Cyrus’s work focuses on the music performed during civic services of remembrance known as “walking over the grave” processions. “We know that Thalbach nuns participated and sang during such ceremonies, paid by donors,” said Cyrus. “I’ll be measuring soundscape details in nine Vorarlberg cemeteries where remembrance ceremonies were held. My work will include researching manuscripts and incunabula at eight different libraries across Austria. Many of the original prayer books I’ll be examining are not yet digitized and are largely unexamined.”

The project is made possible by a Vanderbilt Global Engagement Research Seed Grant. Established this year by the Office of the Vice Provost for Arts, Libraries, & Global Engagement, the program provides financial support to new and innovative faculty research endeavors that involve global engagement. The grants are meant to seed projects with larger funding capacities.

A professor of musicology at Blair School of Music since 1994, Cynthia Cyrus’s commitment to scholarly excellence and dedication to her students have earned her widespread recognition, including the KC Potter Outstanding Service to Students Award in 2019, a “making history” award from the Women’s Center in 2012, and a Blair School Faculty Excellence Award in 2009. She holds a BA from Pomona College, and MA and PhD from the University of North Carolina.
