The UAS Technikum Wien is the largest technical university in Austria and the first university in Vienna .

history

The UAS Technikum Wien was founded in 1994 and was the first Viennese institution to receive technical college status in 2000.

In 2003/04, Austria was the first university of applied sciences to switch to the Bachelor / Master system.

In October 2008 the UAS Technikum Wien opened a second location in the passive office building ENERGYbase in Vienna-Floridsdorf.

UAS Technikum Wien has been a member of the European University Association (EUA) since 2012 .

In 2013, a comprehensive expansion of the main location on Höchstädtplatz in Vienna's 20th district of Brigittenau was completed.

In December 2015, UAS Technikum Wien received the Erasmus + Award 2015 in the higher education category.

With around 12,000 graduates and around 4,400 students in 12 Bachelor's and 19 Master's degree programs, the UAS Technikum Wien is the largest provider of technical universities in Austria. It is also a network partner of the FEEI (Association of the Electrical and Electronics Industry).

research

Four thematic focal points form the strategic framework for research at the UAS Technikum Wien:

  • E-health : the focus is on the exchange, interoperability and application of health data, but not only in the area of ​​ambient assisted living.
  • Embedded systems : the competencies relate primarily to platforms and development tools for intelligent products as well as the application areas of smart homes and assistive technologies.
  • Renewable energy : the focus is on urban technologies and the cities of the future and extends to questions of mobility.
  • Tissue engineering : as part of the broader landscape of intelligent materials that will shape health and production even more in the future, there are numerous possible applications. They range from the regeneration of joints in the body to various types of material coatings for industrial applications.

In addition, employees at the UAS Technikum Wien research basic technologies and work on other projects in areas such as telecommunications , security or usability .

Other Projects

  • With the Austrian Cubes, the UAS Technikum Wien and the TU Graz provide an internationally competitive robot soccer team in the RoboCup Small-Size class. The youngest RoboCup team at UAS Technikum Wien, the Austrian Kangaroos, is a cooperation with the TU Vienna and reached the quarter-finals of the Standard Platform League at the RoboCup World Cup 2009.
