The prerequisite for admission to the program is the successful completion of a diploma or master program in a legal field or of another equivalent program at a recognised post-secondary educational institution in Austria or abroad. If you have completed a diploma or master program in Social and Economic Sciences at WU, admission is possible, but you have to take additional oral examinations which serve the purpose of establishing equal standards with alumni of a degree program in Law. Information about admission to the program can be obtained in the chapter Admissions.
