The program is designed to suit the requirements of students who wish to remain employed during their studies. In order to help learners fulfilling their professional, academic and private commitments, semesters are structured consistently. For this, online lectures are held during evening hours and mandatory classroom attendance in Innsbruck is limited to a minimum. Typically, three courses take place in the first half of a semester with each course lasting three weeks. Following these nine weeks there is one week in which students must attend four days of classroom lectures and exams in Innsbruck. The second half of a semester is structured the same way with nine weeks of online courses and one week in which four days of classroom lectures and exams close the semester. The fourth study semester is structured differently. There are only six weeks of online lectures followed by one week with four days of mandatory classroom lectures and exams. After this, students are supposed to write their Master thesis and sit the final exam.
