Support for Prospective Students

The University of Applied Sciences Technikum Wien pursues the goals of increasing the diversity among the students and the accessability to university studies with various programs.

The accumulated experience of institutions from the higher education sector has shown that a diverse group of students performs even more successfully than a homogeneous group.

Each person develops a wide range of skills based on their educational background and individual experiences. If all the different individuals meet during their studies, the students can complement each other both socially and professionally thanks to the multitude of facets, enabling them to better support each other.

Particularly important in this respect are students with professional experience and people whose educational paths to university go beyond pure school education. In addition to the targeted promotion of women for access to technical degree programs, diversity can be increased allowing access for professionally qualified people without formal university admission requirements.
