In 1774, Austria was still part of Holy Roman Empire Archduchess Maria Theresia set the foundation for the educational system in Austria at the time. Austria's education system is controlled by the federal government, which implements 9 years of compulsory education for children between the ages of 6 and 15, and its education system can be broadly divided into four parts, namely pre-school education, primary education, secondary education and higher education.
Preschool education
Most children over the age of three attend kindergarten, but it is not compulsory.
Primary education
Upon reaching the age of six (1 September each year being the defining day), children are required to enter the Volksschule for four years of education. During this period, school fees, books and transportation expenses for school-age children are borne by the State. In addition to the schools established by the general state, under certain conditions, you can go to the local private school, or even study at home.
Secondary education
Following the National Primary School, children aged about 10 years can choose to enter a regular secondary school or a main secondary school for a period of four years. There are entrance examinations for ordinary secondary schools, which are required to be passed; Main secondary schools do not have this restriction. If children have special problems, they can choose special schools as their learning institutions. After the successful completion of Grade 8 (9 years of compulsory education), students will have to choose from four kinds of educational institutions, namely ordinary high school, advanced vocational training school, intermediate vocational training school, and multiple technical schools with advanced vocational schools, each of which is a new stage, and only the higher vocational training school requires an examination and has a score threshold. When advancing from higher vocational schools and regular high schools to higher education, a graduation examination is required. [4]
Higher education
The study period of Austrian university is generally 4 to 5 years, of which the basic study stage is 2 years, and the professional study stage is 2 to 3 years. Students in the prescribed number of years to complete the required courses, optional courses, through the examination to obtain the necessary credits, the final stage of learning to write a graduation thesis, after passing the graduation. Austria offers only one advanced degree in universities - the doctorate. Doctoral education is a natural continuation of undergraduate education. There is no limit to the age of doctoral students, and there is no special organization responsible for doctoral education, and the main form is guided by tutors. The traditional academic system without a bachelor's degree, known as Diplomstudium, is divided into two or three major stages (Abschnitt). A master's degree (Magister; The engineering is Diplom-Ingenieur. After completing the master's degree, students are admitted to the Doktoratstudium, write a doctoral thesis (Dissertation), pass the defense, and award different doctoral degrees (doctors) according to academic classification.
The Austrian academic system is rigorous, and in principle, the field of study for a doctorate must be in the same category as the previous master's degree. Austria has reformed higher education to introduce bachelor's degrees, but so far only a handful of departments offer them, and most are still taught by traditional Diplomstudium. Austrian public universities adopt a division of labor system, the level of each school is average, students are based on the wish to study subjects and transportation convenience as the basis for choosing a school. Compared with private colleges, public university degrees are highly valued.
