The admissions procedure includes a written test, a practical vocational aptitude test, and an admission interview.
- Aim
The aim of the two stage admission process is to ensure that places are offered to those completing the multi-level admission procedure with the best results. The tests are designed to assess the skill set needed for desired profession. - Procedure
The written test includes a series of test requirements and checks whether the candidates have basic intellectual and social-emotional performance requirements in the areas of natural and human science general knowledge (mathematics, biology, physics, chemistry, psychology, education, human biology, nutrition, etc.) and demonstrate knowledge about the profession as well as personality traits relevant to the profession. After that, candidates who have reached the required level take part in a practical occupational aptitude test and an interview. The practical vocational aptitude test is designed to assess, among other skills, occupation-specific skills and abilities such as capacity of reaction, powers of observation, coordination and physical awareness. Personal aptitude elements are assessed in the interview. These include career motivation, career understanding, performance behavior, problem solving, and reflective ability. Each part of the test is scored. - Criteria
The criteria that lead to admission are exclusively performance-based. Geographical assignments or even a repeated application of the candidates have no influence on the admission. The admission requirements must be fulfilled. All required documents must be submitted on time. The final ranking of the candidates is based on the following weighting:- Practical vocational aptitude test (40%)
- Interview (40%)
- Average score of the written entrance test (20%)
The application committee, which consists of the head of the degree program and three to five persons from the team of lecturers, allocates the study places on the basis of the ranking series. The student representatives are invited to participate. The entire process as well as all test results and evaluations of the admission procedure are documented in a transparent and comprehensible manner. Candidates are invited to check their admission status via an online tool. Separate written information is not provided.
The written entrance test will be held on Saturday, 23th March 2024.

During the studies
FH Campus Wien is now the largest university of applied sciences for health in Austria. After the legal framework was created in 2006 to introduce the MTD academies and the midwife academy into the higher education sector, FH Campus Wien launched the first bachelor's degree programs in 2007. Shortly afterwards the first master's degree programs where launched in the Department of Health. Today, FH Campus Vienna now has extensive expertise and a large network at its disposal. An important partner in the areas of education, research and development is the Vienna Healthcare Group. We also work closely with the Professional Association of Physio Austria. Various special events are regularly held at our attractive main campus. Students benefit from the modern infrastructure of our university. This includes numerous function rooms. A highlight is the movement laboratory where force plates and cameras enable the three-dimensional analysis of movements in order to gain a better understanding of movement disorders. Measurements are recorded using wireless electrodes attached to the body. Furthermore, you will also have the opportunity to join an interdisciplinary, professional community. There is great potential in research projects at the intersection of health, technology and social services. Practical relevance is also guaranteed at our Campus Lecture evenings, which are open to all and feature contributions from prominent experts.
The degree course will provide you with the necessary knowledge to help people in all age groups to lead a self-determined life with a high level of functional capacity and activity.
- You will be concerned with physiotherapeutic examination and treatment procedures as well as their implementation in the therapy process. You will combine your acquired expertise and knowledge of methodology to develop comprehensive professional competence.
- To do so you will acquire social communicative skills and self-competence.
- You will acquire basic medical knowledge, in particular in anatomy, physiology, pathology, hygiene, bio-mechanics, kinematics, perception and posture instruction as well as various clinical disciplines.
- Practically oriented subjects such as posture and movement instruction, basic skills in professional interaction with patients, massage, relaxation techniques, manual therapy and lymphological physiotherapy form the foundation to develop the necessary skills and techniques.
- Basic knowledge in areas such as education, psychology, sociology, scientific working, law and ethics round out your education.
- Beginning in the third semester, you will also implement your theoretical and practical knowledge during extensive internships under the guidance of trained physiotherapists.
