Welcome Services 

Orientation, Support & Networking  

The Welcome Service of the 'Professorship Appointments' serves as the primary point of contact for newly appointed professors, helping them settle in and start their journey at the University of Vienna. Through personalized consultations, we address specific needs, such as housing, schools, childcare options, and dual-career support. Based on these discussions, we provide tailored recommendations and connect you with relevant contacts and departments.

Our goal is to help you create the best possible professional and personal environment, ensuring a smooth and successful transition to life at the University of Vienna.
