Supplement Study Programmes and Specialisation Programmes
The Benefits
On this page we have summarized the 6 best reasons to complete a supplement study programme or a specialisation programme at the University of Salzburg.
Modular Structure
All offerings are composed of modules worth 12 ECTS each. Supplementary study programmes (24 ECTS) consist of a basic module and an advanced module (each 12 ECTS). Additionally, in some offerings, there is the option to expand the supplementary study programmes into a specialisation programme by completing an additional module (36 ECTS).
Certificate from the University of Salzburg
The completion of a basic module (12 ECTS), a supplementary study programme (24 ECTS), or a specialisation programme (36 ECTS) is confirmed with a certificate from the University of Salzburg. These certificates can be requested even before graduation and can serve as proof of acquired skills and additional qualifications when applying for internships or other jobs alongside your studies.
Flexible and Individual
Courses from the supplementary study programmes can be taken throughout your entire degree program. The certificate must be requested in a timely manner before graduation.
Expand Your Profile
By setting individual focuses and acquiring special skills beyond your main studies, you can sharpen your personal profile.
Interdisciplinary Orientation
Supplementary study programmes focus on specific themes, usually from various disciplines and perspectives, allowing you to look beyond the "narrow confines" of your main field of study.
Austausch & Vernetzung
The interdisciplinary nature of supplementary study programmes facilitates exchange and networking with students and faculty from other disciplines and universities.
