Curriculum changes 2018

Changes to the curricula of all Doctoral and PhD degree programs apply to all students who started a doctoral or PhD program since the summer semester 2018 (because the by-laws changed on 1.1.2018). For all doctoral and PhD students who started their studies before that time, nothing much will change unless they voluntarily switch to the new version.

The office hours take place at the Doctoral Office (Campus WU, Building LC, 2nd floor, Study Service Center). To make an appointment, please send an e-mail containing information about your request to doctoraloffice@wu.ac.at.
