The IB Diploma Programme is a challenging two-year curriculum, primarily aimed at students aged 16 to 19. It leads to a qualification that is widely recognized by the world’s leading universities.
Students learn more than a collection of facts. The Diploma Programme prepares students ideally for university and encourages them to:
- develop the ability to communicate with and understand people from other countries and cultures.
The curriculum contains six subject groups together with a core made up of three separate parts. This is illustrated by a hexagon with the three parts of the core at its centre:
The International Baccalaureate Diploma is fully recognised in Austria.
IB Diploma holders gain admission to colleges and universities throughout the world. These include well known European and American institutions such as Cambridge, Oxford, Harvard and Yale, prestigious universities in Latin America and the Asia/Pacific region, and more recently established centres in developing parts of the world. Formal agreements exist between the IB and many ministries of education and private institutions. Some colleges and universities may offer advanced standing or course credit to students with strong IBDP examination results.
The Organisation publishes and regularly updates guides to university recognition in each of its geographic regions.
BG/BRG Klosterneuburg offers a dedicated university counselling service which guides and assists pupils in their applications to colleges and universities in the UK and USA.
