You can apply online on the homepage of the University of Innsbruck. On the homepage of the University of Innsbruck you will find the field "Online applications". Click on "continue" and complete your application for the "Bachelor's Programme Philosophy".

The ÖH fee is a prerequisite for taking up and continuing your studies and must be paid to the Austrian Student Union (ÖH). Make sure that you pay the ÖH fee in time before the beginning of the respective semester. You can pay the ÖH fee at various machines in the university buildings or online via LFU:online/Meine Daten/Mein Studienbeitrag. If you do not pay the ÖH fee on time, you will be exmatriculated.

The StEOP should be completed positively in the first semester and is a prerequisite for the continuation of the degree programme. In the Bachelor's programme Philosophy, the StEOP consists of the VO Logic and Argumentation (5 ECTS) and the SL Introduction to Philosophy (5 ECTS). You may repeat the StEOP four times (= five attempts). The fourth and fifth examinations are held by board. If the fifth attempt is assessed negatively, the admission to the degree programme expires.

In the first semester, in addition to the StEOP courses (a total of 10 ECTS ), you can complete further courses amounting to 20 ECTS (corresponding to 2 modules). A total of 30 ECTS can therefore be acquired in the first semester.

Further courses can only be completed after positive completion of the StEOP. However, you can already register even though you have not yet completed the StEOP.

The study code is: UC 033 541. Usually you must state the study code when taking examinations.

Attendance is not compulsory for lectures (VO). The assessment takes place in a single examination, usually at the end of the semester. Attendance is compulsory for the study orientation course (SL), the proseminar (PS) and the seminar (SE). SL, PS and SE have an examination-immanent character, which means that your performance is assessed throughout the semester.

After you have registered for courses, you can check on the homepage of the University of Innsbruck under "Quicklinks"/ "LFU:online"/ "My course registrations" whether your registration for the courses has been confirmed. If your registration is confirmed you can participate in the respective course.

However, please note that due to the rotation system of the modules, the respective VO and PS or SE are only offered every three semesters. You only have to attend one PS or SE per module! It is up to you which one you choose, whereby admission is subject to the availability of places.

You do not have to write the Bachelor's thesis immediately at the end of a seminar, i.e. in the same semester, but make sure that you have not yet completed the seminar before you start writing the Bachelor's thesis. With the submission and positive assessment of the Bachelor's thesis, you then complete the respective seminar and receive further 10 ECTS for it.

No, that is not possible. 

The Bachelor's thesis is to be written in German but can also be written in another language, given that teacher is proficient in this language and agrees to this.

No, writing a Master's thesis is not bound to a seminar. You can therefore complete all seminars without hesitation and then write the Master's thesis. You are largely free to choose the topic. However, the professors will only accept you as a tutor of your Master's thesis if your chosen topic falls within their research focus.

The Master's thesis must be written in German. Another language may be chosen if the supervising person is proficient in this language and agrees.

You can contact your preferred tutor after a course or make an enquiry by email.

In the course of the obligatory module "Vorbereitung der Masterarbeit", you agree with your tutor on the topic, the scope and the form of the Master's thesis on the basis of a brief description of the content (exposé). In addition, you agree on the work processes and discuss the study progress with your supervisor. A time frame for the completion of the Master's thesis is also determined.

You can find the form necessary to register your Master's thesis at:  https://www.uibk.ac.at/studium/angebot/ma-philosophie/index.html.de

The registration form must be signed by your tutor and then handed in by you to the Examinations Office.

It is up to you how long you take to write your Master's thesis. However, try to stick to the time frame that you have set with your supervisor in the compulsory module "Preparation of the Master's Thesis" and avoid delays in your study process.

After the positive assessment of all other compulsory modules and the Master's thesis, the defence of your Master's thesis takes place before an examination board. The examination board consists of the supervisor, another examiner and a chairperson. It is the student's responsibility to obtain the consent of these persons, to coordinate the scheduling and to inform the examination office. During the defence, the Master's thesis is reflected upon in the overall context of the Master's programme in Philosophy.
