Students who are awarded the Helmut Veith Stipend, receive:
EUR 6000 annually for a duration of up to two years.
Waiver of all tuition fees at TU Wien.
Eligibilities
Applicants must be eligible for admission to one of the master’s programs in computer science at TU Wien that are taught in English. In 2019/2020 and 2020/2021 those are:
Master in Logic and Computation
Master in Business Informatics
European Master in Computational Logic

While applications for funding can be filed before or in parallel with the admissions process, the funding will only be awarded to applicants who have been unconditionally admitted to the master’s program. An application for funding does not replace the admissions process; neither does a conditional offer of funding entitle the applicant to study at TU Wien.

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or Mathematics (Bologna first cycle) or equivalent degree
Extensive knowledge and interest in (at least one of) Helmut Veith’s areas of research:
Logic in Computer Science
Formal Methods and Verification
Foundations of Artificial Intelligence
Complexity Theory
Computer Security
Proficiency in English

Recipients of funding must be committed to demonstrating good progress during their studies, i.e.:
obtain at least 25 ECTS credits from the respective master’s curriculum per term on average since the beginning of their master’s studies (the deadlines are April 30 for the winter term and November 30 for the summer term), and
achieve a grade average of at most 1.5.
Recipients of funding have to reside in Austria during term time for the duration of their studies. Exceptions and temporary interruptions of the stay during term time (e.g., for internships or research visits) are subject to approval.
The stipend is provided for the duration of the master’s program (subject to the conditions listed above), for up to 2 years.
