Postgraduate Scholarship Program
Modul University Vienna ▪ In 2023, MCC acquired a majority stake in the Vienna-based Modul University,
which provides MCC and Carpathian Basin Hungarian students with another unique training
and learning opportunity. Compared to other European universities, Modul University is a smaller-scale
institution with a strong focus on economics,
business management, and tourism. Its
main teaching and research areas include
management, sustainability, and applied
data science. According to the 2020 edition
of U-Multirank, which uses a multidimensional,
user-driven approach to rank higher
education institutions globally, Modul
University Vienna is ranked among the top
25 most cited universities in the world.
Modul University provides standard practical
training and runs extensive research programs in which MCC students, researchers, and academics
have been involved since 2023. Teachers come from over 40 countries and the language of instruction
is English. While in 2007, the Vienna and Nanjing campuses only offered three study programs
for 80 students, as of today, 1,100 students are pursuing their studies in 11 different study programs.
Modul’s student body is a remarkably international community, with more than 70% coming from
outside of Austria. The active student government at Modul University not only organizes a wide
range of activities for its students, but also works closely with MCC student organizations to organize
joint events both in Vienna and Budapest.
In addition to organizing joint conferences and academic events, MCC offers scholarship opportunities
to support the education and professional
development of Hungarian students from
MCC and the Carpathian Basin. At Modul
University, students will have the opportunity
to gain work experience at international
organizations and companies and meet public
and business leaders. Our long-term goal
is to help make Modul University one of the
top-ranked boutique universities in Central
and Eastern Europe.
