What does nostrification mean?

Nostrification is the recognition of a foreign university degree as equivalent to an Austrian university degree programme.

Nostrification recognises the completion of a degree programme abroad as equal to a degree programme completed in Austria and grants the right to use the academic title awarded by the Austrian institution.

If you have completed a degree in psychology at a recognised post-secondary educational institution in a member state of the European Union, the European Economic Area or Switzerland, you do not need to apply for nostrification.
