We still have some free spots at partner universities for the summer semester 2025. Check the available exchange places, write an amazing motivation letter, and apply! For more information on an exchange semester, and how to apply, please visit our website.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at the International Office.

Eurail and Erasmus Student Network (ESN) created a new Interrail-Pass specifically for Erasmus+ students. With this rail pass (valid for six months) you can travel on four or six days and visit far more places than only your partner university. You can even get a Top-Up Green Travel for the ticket. If you have questions about Green Traveling, we will be happy to help!

For more information on the rail pass see: https://www.interrail.eu/en/interrail-passes/erasmus

Even in the summer we will help you with your questions on international exchange issues.

Our opening hours from July 1, 2024 to September 1, 2024:

• On campus: Wednesday, 10:00am – 12:00 noon (LC building, level 4)

• On the phone: Monday through Thursday 10:00am – 12:00 noon (+43-1-31336-4310)

Please also check the current opening hours on our website.

Our most popular event, Go Global, will take place on October 23, 2024 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in the Forum and Gallery of the LC Building. The entire International Office will be there to answer all of your questions. And in the Speakers’ Corner some former exchange students will talk about their experiences, and you can ask them questions. Other WU service units and external partners, e.g. embassies or grant agencies, will also give you the advice you need.

Save the date – we look forward to seeing you there.

The summer semester is soon drawing to a close, and June is exam time. Stress levels and expectations of ourselves are often high, and cognitive ability diminishes when we’re stressed. We may lose focus, get more anxious and miss opportunities to think creatively and constructively.

But that doesn't have to be the case. You can learn to increase your level of concentration and consciously direct your attention to be more resilient and efficient in stressful moments.

Group activities in June:

• Focus & Concentration | (DE&EN) | SKILL SESSION |May 15, 11:00 am-12:00 pm | with Daniela Razocher

• Sticking with it! Finding motivation & making progress | PEERGROUP | May 17, 10:00 am-12:00 pm | with Maria Ebner
