The Diplomatic Academy of Vienna is a postgraduate professional school, dedicated to preparing talented men and women for international careers and positions of leadership. In 1754 the Empress Maria Theresa founded the Oriental Academy to train young men for the diplomatic service of the Habsburg monarchy. Out of the Oriental Academy evolved first the Consular Academy and in 1964 the Diplomatic Academy of Vienna, which in 1996 was granted the status of an independent public training institution. The Academy is thus one of the oldest of its kind worldwide. The MAIS programme is a two-year academic programme which centers on the advanced study of Politics and International Relations, International Economics, History, and International and European Law. Students have to complete an interdisciplinary thesis in this research-based programme. Equipped with extensive knowledge, strong analytical skills, some language competency, and the experience of an international community, graduates proceed to positions in international organisations, business, and government or to further research and academic careers. The MAIS is a joint Master’s degree of the Diplomatic Academy and the University of Vienna.
