Here's what to expect from the Sustainability Challenge:

As a master's student or advanced bachelor's student, you'll have the opportunity over two semesters to work in an interdisciplinary team on a concrete sustainability project. Working together with companies, ministries or NGOs, real sustainability projects are brought to life – from conception through to implementation. The theoretical input is provided by the seven participating universities: WU Wien, BOKU, TU Wien, die Angewandte, Uni Wien, Uni Salzburg and Uni Graz.

The lecture units are designed by teaching staff from the partner universities and encourage engagement with questions around ecological economics, climate change, art, sustainable construction, consumption and production patterns, as well as societal frameworks.

The course is accredited with 8 ECTS (4 ECTS per semester) at Uni Graz.

Questions about the Sustainability Challenge are welcome and can be directed to Ms Gordana Djurdjevic (gordana.djurdjevic@wu.ac.at) from the WU coordination team.
