At AMADEUS Vienna, education is about more than academic success; it is about accompanying students as they discover their strengths, define their ambitions, and confidently shape their future. Choosing a university and career pathway is one of the most important transitions in a young person’s life. At AMADEUS Vienna, students are guided through this journey with personalised mentorship, structured preparation, and access to strong international networks.

The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme provides a rigorous and internationally recognised qualification respected by leading universities worldwide. Through critical thinking, research, and intercultural understanding, students develop the independence and resilience required to succeed in higher education.

In addition to the IB Diploma Programme, AMADEUS Vienna offers the IB Career-related Programme (IBCP) and the High School Diploma, providing flexible pathways that support students with different academic interests and career goals. The IBCP combines academic study with career-related learning and is particularly strong in Music and the Arts, allowing students to develop their artistic talents alongside their academic education through the AMADEUS Music & Arts Academy. A Business-focused IBCP pathway is also planned for the future, further expanding opportunities for students interested in entrepreneurship and business studies.

The High School Diploma pathway offers another academically rigorous option, supporting students in building a strong academic foundation while exploring their interests and preparing for university applications. Together, these pathways ensure that students can pursue a programme that best aligns with their strengths, ambitions, and future plans.

AMADEUS Vienna graduates go on to study a wide range of disciplines, from Medicine, Psychology, and Law to Business, Engineering, and the Arts, reflecting both the strength of the IB programme and the individuality of each student’s aspirations.

Personalised Career Counselling and University Preparation

Career guidance begins early, encouraging students to reflect on their interests and talents and how these connect to future professions. As they enter the IB Diploma years, support becomes increasingly personalised.

Grade 12 students benefit from individual 1 to 1 university counselling, including guidance on applications, essay writing, admissions processes, and standardised testing such as the SAT and ACT. Throughout this demanding academic period, the Careers Counsellor works closely with students and parents, ensuring that every application is thoughtful, strategic, and aligned with their long term goals.

This balance of academic rigour and structured university preparation enables students to approach their next steps with clarity and confidence.

Strategic University Collaborations

AMADEUS Vienna has formal collaborations with JAM MUSIC LAB Private University, Music and Arts University of the City of Vienna (MUK), and University of Pécs.

Through the partnership with JAM MUSIC LAB, students, especially students from the IBCP Music programme, benefit from mentorship, workshops, access to professional facilities, and participation in the Pre-College Programme, strengthening their artistic preparation while following the university’s standard admission requirements. Collaboration with MUK offers students opportunities to attend selected events, presentations, and academic introductions, providing valuable insight into conservatory-level study.

In the medical field, cooperation with the University of Pécs will include serving as an official testing centre for medical entrance examinations, alongside preparatory guidance and interview support, with all final admissions decisions made by the university.

In addition, AMADEUS Vienna is developing relationships with internationally recognised institutions such as King’s College London, Central European University, and IE University, further expanding global academic connections while respecting each institution’s independent selection process.

AMADEUS Vienna: A pathway for everyone

We walk alongside our students as they grow, challenge themselves, and take their next steps, equipping them with the confidence, resilience, and global perspective needed to thrive at university and beyond.
