In 1997 the LIS was converted to the Liechtenstein University of Applied Sciences as a foundation under public law and in 2005 it was converted to the Liechtenstein University of Applied Sciences . In July 2008, the government of the Principality of Liechtenstein approved the implementation of doctoral programs ( doctorate law ).
The official transition to the "University of Liechtenstein" took place on February 1, 2011 on the basis of the law on the University of Liechtenstein passed by the State Parliament of the Principality of Liechtenstein (November 25, 2010), after the body for accreditation and quality assurance of Swiss universities (OAQ) has confirmed compliance with the quality guidelines of the Swiss University Conference (SUK) on the basis of an extensive evaluation .

These services are provided by the institutes and affiliated institutes.
