Living and Learning in Vienna: Experiences from International Students (#121 Giorgio Cattani, Joseph Khoury und Amr Shaheen)
11 June, 2025
What makes studying in Vienna so special – and why do students from abroad choose UAS Technikum Wien?
In this podcast episode, host Bella Kitzwögerer welcomes three international students, Amr Shaheen (Master’s in Internet of Things and Smart Systems), Giorgio Cattani (Master’s in Sports Technology), and Joseph Khoury (Master’s in Quantum Engineering), who share their personal stories and impressions.
From the straightforward application process and their first experiences in the lecture hall to the special spirit of small study groups and the practical focus of the courses, the students talk about valuable exchanges and exciting projects (including trips to the ski slopes…).
Life away from campus is not neglected either: How does Vienna feel to someone who has moved here from Cairo, Bergamo, or Dubai? Spoiler: Vienna’s public transportation, green spaces, international flair, and diverse cuisine get top marks—with Italian quality assurance!
