Austria Open for autumn 2026 entry — international Bachelor applications and scholarship assessment run through spring/summer 2026

MCI Innsbruck International Undergraduate Scholarship

MCI — the Management Center Innsbruck — is Austria's leading entrepreneurial business and technology university, set in the Tyrolean Alps. It runs a strong portfolio of English-taught Bachelor programmes in management, business, and engineering, and offers merit-based partial-tuition scholarships to talented international undergraduates. For Sri Lankan students this is an accessible, English-medium route into an Austrian degree with close industry ties and a practical, applied teaching style. MCI is a university of applied sciences (Fachhochschule), so it charges tuition (unlike Austria's free-tuition public universities), but the scholarships reduce that cost and the programmes are designed around employability. Awards are partial rather than full, so plan a realistic funding picture; we'll help you model the LKR net cost before you apply.

Honest Cost Note

MCI is a fee-charging university of applied sciences and these awards are partial, not full. Even with a scholarship you will need a funding plan for the remaining tuition plus living costs in Innsbruck. We help you model the real LKR figure first.

English Proficiency

Programmes are taught in English; you'll need IELTS 6.0-6.5 or equivalent. Sri Lankan applicants from an English-medium schooling background usually qualify via MOI waiver where MCI accepts it.
