All the information you used to find should still be there. The main change is in the news: with longer news posts we will be able to inform you better about what’s going on.

The research groups on photogrammetry, geoinformation and cartography were involved in the porticus event, which allowed interested teenagers to get an insight into selected curricula at TU Vienna. On the second day of the three-day event, the students participated in a treasure hunt, checking in on various stations (i.e. research groups) around TU Vienna.
