Imperial and TU Wien

have long-standing, very good and successful research collaborations at individual faculty level. In order to network, promote and strengthen these existing collaborations between faculties and also to raise them to an institutional and internationally visible partnership level TU Wien and Imperial signed on May 2, 2024, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU).
 

TU Wien actively promotes and strengthens successful scientific collaborations.

Rektor Professor Jens Schneider and Vice Rector for Research, Innovation and International Affairs Professor Peter Ertl cordially invite colleagues and researchers from Imperial and TU Wien to be part of the “Kick-off Co-Op Information, Consulting and Network Meeting”.

The aim of the kick-off meeting is, on the one hand, to make the parties aware of the mentioned above institutional cooperation and, on the other hand, to actively and specifically discuss and promote future co-operation and funding opportunities.
