Different Courses Depending on Curriculum

Please note that a new, extended Business Communication III course will be offered for the new MA IBA Curriculum (2024). If you are still in the process of completing your studies as part of the old MA IBA curriculum (2016), please register for course 040179.

 

According to the curriculum, the new course will require language proficiency at the B1 level (CEFR). To  confirm your having achieved this level, you may either provide international certificates such as DILI, CERTIT, PLIDA, CELI, CILS UNO, certificates provided by the university's language center, or Matura or other international high school diplomas with explicitly noted language levels. Additionally, if you have finished your BA IBA studies at the University of Vienna and successfully completed Business Communication 1 & 2 in Italian, this too serves as confirmation of the necessary language level.
