Feel the international spirit Graduates of IMC Krems business degree programmes have what it takes to deal with the challenges of the global economy Flexibility and a willingness to adapt constantly – these are two essential criteria for educational institutions responsible for preparing young people to enter the current and future world of business. In Krems, our unique mindset means that these requirements underlie everything we do – an international outlook is a guiding principle in all of our degree programmes. This includes courses taught in German. Around half of our business degree programmes are held in English, and we have students from around 50 different countries. An international perspective is vital during courses at the university, as well as for internships and semesters abroad.

Business and legal modules play a central role. But our students also develop supplementary skills that underpin their success: social skills, such as high levels of flexibility, mobility and productivity, an understanding of other cultures, cosmopolitan thinking and communication skills.

Sustainability is one of the most engaging subjects of our day and age.

Students attend courses on this topic, learning how to support companies and organisations looking to implement policies and strategies aimed at enhancing environmental sustainability. They also develop the abilities required to assume corporate and social responsibility.

Digitalisation & engineering Digital Business Innovation and Transformation

“What makes the degree unique is our holistic approach to digitalisation. On the one hand, critical and analytical thinking are needed to fully exploit existing processes digitally.

On the other hand, creativity is called for to explore potential and develop, test and, if necessary, integrate innovative products, services, and business models into the company. We call this process transformation.

The challenge lies less in mastering the new digital technologies or ensuring profitability, but rather in bringing the human factor to the fore and incorporating it into the process.

Our focus here is on customer-centric innovation using approaches such as design thinking, as well as on human-computer interaction, human development and communications, change and transformation management, leadership, and ethics.�

Krems – a university city on

Vienna's doorstep Highest concentration of higher education institutions in Austria With five universities within an area of 52 km2, Krems is the site of the most concentrated higher education cluster in Austria – and some would claim in the whole of Europe.

Located in the greater Vienna region, Krems is less than an hour away from the Austrian capital by public transport.

It has a population of about 25,000 and around 13,000 students – wherever you go there’s a great student feel about the town. A tip for the parents of international students: Krems is a very safe place where you can get almost anywhere on foot or by bike. Our foreign students love the area around the town, its charming Heuriger wine taverns and its large, cosmopolitan student community.

A unique historic town on the Danube Krems is nestled between the Danube river and hillside vineyards at the gateway to the Wachau valley – within one of the most beautiful cultural landscapes in Austria and a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Region. With a wide range of options for shopping, sports and outdoor activities, and everything that the historic, pedestrianised old town has to offer, there is plenty to do in your free time. Krems also has a diverse and burgeoning restaurant and café scene.

Young, dynamic and environmentally friendly Krems is a vibrant university town – friendly and welcoming, yet cosmopolitan thanks to its 13,000 students from more than 50 different countries. The young people give this charming town a flair all of its own. And Krems is a place where they rightly feel very comfortable and safe. Our students really appreciate being able to get around on foot or by bicycle and without a car or having to use public transport.

The university’s three locations – modern, historic and central Courses take place at the ultra-modern IMC Campus Krems, at the international campus IMC Piaristengasse, and in some cases at the medieval IMC Gozzoburg site in the heart of the old town. These three locations highlight the quality of life that students enjoy in Krems, as well as providing a perfect setting for studying and socialising.
