The fact that society is so culturally diverse means that students need to be aware of and engage with different cultural influences. The academic minor in International Expertise, which is mainly taught in English, contributes to internationalisation at home and abroad and enables students, including incoming (Erasmus) students, to expand their linguistic and intercultural skills.

The internationalisation of a university is greatly enhanced if it offers a broad range of foreign-language teaching and study abroad opportunities, which in turn means that it is well on the way to achieving one of the goals Austria has set itself with the National Strategy for Higher Education Mobility and Internationalisation 2020-2030 (HMIS2030). A comprehensive internationalisation culture represents an attractive offer for students from Austria and abroad and is therefore an important building block for a future-oriented strategy at the Mozarteum University. Foreign-language teaching and study programmes also add value to the already rich palette of opportunities on offer at the Mozarteum University, enabling students to gain intercultural experience and establish contacts and networks.
Basic module
The following introductory courses are compulsory:
The academic minor could be structured as follows, for example:
Advanced module
The advanced module builds upon the skills, abilities and knowledge acquired in the basic module. In some cases, depending on the courses offered by the relevant departments, it is possible to set an individual focus. The courses of the advanced module are to be chosen from the recommended programme offered by the Mozarteum University Salzburg at the respective campus, Salzburg or Innsbruck (12 ECTS points). A minimum of A2 level English language skills is required.
The academic minor is aimed at students of the Mozarteum University Salzburg (at both the Salzburg and Innsbruck campuses) and can be taken by all students of the BA, MA, diploma and PhD programmes within the scope of the free electives required by their curriculum.
Students of other degree programmes can take part in the respective academic minor within the scope of their programme's free elective requirements, subject to available capacities. Students from other universities can be admitted as part of co-enrolment, subject to available capacity (for further information, please contact the Department of Studies and Examinations at the Mozarteum University Salzburg).
The participation in courses from the academic minor is possible within the scope of the free elective course that students are required to complete for their degree programme. If a student does not complete the number of credits required to be awarded the full academic minor, the certificates from the individual courses can be used as credits for free electives.
Students have the opportunity to obtain a certificate for the basic module (12 ECTS points) as well as for the advanced module (12 ECTS points). The following certificates can be applied for after successful completion of the courses for the academic minor:
The examination certificates for the courses must be submitted in the specified digital form (individual certificates in PDF format as well as a list of courses) to the head of the respective academic minor programme so that the necessary verification checks can be carried out. The certificates are then issued by the Department of Studies & Examinations at the Mozarteum University Salzburg.
