The Strategy Development Process is divided into three phases:

  • Listen & discuss topics:
    • Until November 2024. Two Key questions accompany us throughout this phase:
      • What does TU Wien stand for?
      • What should TU Wien stand for in 10 years?
  • Workshop week & derive strategy:
    • The workshop week will take place from November 18 to 22. Save the date!
    • The strategy paper will be drawn up and published by the end of the year.
  • Competition of ideas for implementation:
    • From January 2025, there will be a competition of ideas for implementation.
    • We are relying on the creativity and diversity within TU Wien to implement the measures from the strategy paper as efficiently as possible.
    • Our strategy will be implemented from the 2nd quarter of 2025.
