FAQs Bridging Courses
How do I register for a bridging course?
- First, you must have registered for the degree programme of your choice. The ECTS examiner will check your admission requirements. If you are missing ECTS credits, they will recommend that you attend a corresponding bridge course and send you the registration link. Please register in good time, as we have participation restrictions.
When do the bridge courses take place?
- The ECTS Master's admission courses take place from May to June. Course times are in the late afternoon or at the weekend. The warm-up courses are offered from August to November, depending on the degree programme. The dates will be communicated to first-year students in good time.
How much do the bridge courses cost?
- Participation in the bridge courses is free of charge for applicants to the University of Applied Sciences BFI Vienna. A fee of EUR 50 is charged for the project management course.
How many lessons of a bridging course am I allowed to miss?
- For the Master's access courses, participation in as many units as possible is expected. For organisational reasons, a maximum of two course units may be missed; for the English and Project Management courses, only one. If, for valid reasons (e.g. illness), further absences are unavoidable, please contact the course director in good time to find an individual solution.
Can I take part in a bridge course if I have not applied to the University of Applied Sciences BFI Vienna?
- No
Can I attend more than one bridge course?
- Yes, however, participating in more than 3 courses (approx. 12 ECTS) is not recommended, as it would be impossible to manage in terms of time.
Will I receive a course confirmation?
- Upon successful completion of an ECTS Master's access course, you will receive a certificate of attendance by the end of August.
