The Pre College Program (PCP) and the Pre College Program Extended (PCPex) are designed as preparatory courses for international students intending to take the admission test for UAS Technikum Wien or embark on a course of study in Austria.
The programs offer the possibility for students all over the world to acquire necessary entrance requirement competences to apply for Bachelor and Master Studies at UAS Technikum Wien in Vienna or other Austrian universities according to their admission requirements. After the completion of the PCP and PCPex it is possible to immediately participate in the standard application process for a Bachelor´s or Master´s program.
