How to Find a Degree Programme on the University of Innsbruck Website (uibk.ac.at)

To find a degree programme, start from the Study section of uibk.ac.at and open Study Programmes, where the university lists more than 160 courses. If you are unsure what fits you, use the StudyTest first: it takes about 15 minutes, asks 72 questions, and returns an interest profile with course recommendations from the university. Both routes are described on the site as free and without obligation.

Route 1: Browse the full programme list

Use this route if you already know your subject area or want to compare everything on offer.

1. Go to the homepage and locate the Study entry (the page also exposes a Quicklinks area and a Web search box if you prefer searching directly).
2. Open Study Programmes. The page states you can "choose from more than 160 courses."
3. Scan by discipline. The university describes itself as offering "a wide range of programmes across all disciplines," so the list is broad rather than clustered around one faculty.
4. Open an individual programme to read its details before deciding.

Expected result: a shortlist of programmes you can compare. Note that the site does not publish tuition or fee information in the material available here, so cost cannot be confirmed from these pages alone.

Route 2: Start with the StudyTest

Use this route if you have no fixed subject in mind.

The test is a filtering tool, not an admission decision. Treat its recommendations as a starting list, then verify each programme through Route 1.

What else the Study section gives you

Beyond the programme list, the Study pages point to:

• Support with choosing a degree course — guidance if you are still deciding.
• Campus life previews — online sessions and education fairs, useful for testing fit before applying.
• "10 reasons to study at the University of Innsbruck" — context on the institution, which describes itself as the most important research and educational institution in western Austria, with 28,000 students and 5,800 employees, founded in 1669.

Checking the institution before you commit

A few facts from the site help you judge scale and setting:

• Located in the heart of the Alps, in Innsbruck, Austria.
• More than 350 years old, founded in 1669.
• 28,000 students and 5,800 employees.

Common sticking points

• Confusing the search box with the programme list. The homepage Web search and People Search are general tools; the structured programme list lives under Study Programmes.
• Expecting the StudyTest to answer admission questions. It only produces an interest profile and recommendations.
• Assuming you have found application deadlines or fees on the programme overview. These details are not part of the material reviewed here; confirm them on the specific programme page or by contacting the university.

Quick decision guide

• Know your subject → go straight to Study Programmes.
• Undecided → run the StudyTest, then cross-check results in Study Programmes.
• Want to sense the campus first → look for the online sessions and education fairs listed under Study.
