Alumni Network
About the Alumni Network:
Science thrives on change. That is why we, as a research hub, sometimes have to say goodbye to members who leave the University of Vienna. But science also thrives on collaboration – which is why we are pleased to be able to establish new links with other universities and research institutions when our members move on. As a central point of contact for interdisciplinary environmental and climate research, the ECH is expanding its international network and enabling new research collaborations.
