Admission to doctoral studies requires the completion of a relevant diploma or master's degree programme at a university or university of applied sciences or another relevant degree programme of at least the same level of higher education at a recognised domestic or foreign post-secondary educational institution. In order to compensate for substantial subject-related differences, supplementary examinations may be prescribed, which must be taken by the end of the second semester of the doctoral programme.

Admission to the degree programme takes place in two steps:

Examination of the prerequisites under study law by the study and examination management (submission of a degree certificate in PDF form for a subject-related Magister or Master's degree programme and command of the German language - at least level C1, Common European Framework of Reference CEFR 2001).

Proof of completed courses amounting to 10 SWS in one of the subjects:

  • Art / craft pedagogy (e.g. courses from subject didactics, art science, visual culture)
  • Music education (e.g. courses in subject didactics, psychology of learning, music education concepts)
  • Musicology (e.g. courses in interpretation research, music biography, music history)

Of these courses, the successful completion of at least 6 SWS with seminar character must be proven.

The application for the scientific doctoral programme is made by submitting the application for admission to  studienabteilung@moz.ac.at.

This degree programme consists of five modules:

  • Module 1 - Rigorosum A (= various courses).

  • Module 3 - Presentation at the Forum for Doctoral Students
  • Module 4 - Rigorosum C (= Dissertation Thesis)
