4 Tips for a Good Choice of Study
Author: Editorial team
What would you like to do after graduating from high school? Which course of study would you like to choose? - This is often not easy. We have spoken to many people and tried to compile a list that could help you choose your field of study.
1. Choosing a course of study is a process, and it takes time.
Deciding what you want to study is more of a process than a sudden inspiration. It takes time, sometimes a lot of it. Many people do not find it easy to decide on a course of study. It is also often associated with many question marks and uncertainties.
If you start thinking about it earlier, you won't be under so much pressure during the process. It is also important to look at the timetables at the universities: When do applications have to be received, when do the registration phases start? Good preparation takes time, especially when studying art.
2. Find out what YOU want.
Do some introspection and find out more about yourself before you rush through different university locations and various fields of study. Take time to think about your goals. Find out what you need, what is important to you in life and in your future working environment. What are your goals, your wishes, your interests, your talents?
- "Akademie geht in die Schule" offers workshops for schools and young people, find out more here.
- Here you will find a list of all fields of study that you can study at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna.
3. Once decided is there no way back?
With the large selection of study programs and great offers, the choice is either associated with luck, but sometimes also with uncertainty. It is therefore quite possible that you will change your choice or change your field of study within a university. Don't worry, you wouldn't be the first.
4. Gather as much information as possible.
Talk to students, take advantage of counseling sessions, get to know everyday life as a student, etc. To make a good decision, you need information, a useful basis for decision-making. There is so much that can help you in your search for information. After all, you have also found your way to Kiosk - our platform for future students.
