It´s graduation season and we would like to congratulate all the recent graduates on their big achievements. Some reasons to continue your studies in Austria or do an exchange semester abroad are of course the high-quality of living, the proximity to nature and arts & culture. If you are interested in studying in Austria, learn more at www.studyinaustria.org about future possibilities.

We believe that cross-atlantic cooperation is the key to success. Therefore, on May 30th, 2023, the Embassy together with the Austrian Academic Exchange Service (OeAD) hosted a seminar on Erasmus+ Higher Education Cooperation in the United States. The goal of the event was to provide a solid framework for networking and an exchange of ideas and projects within the field of international mobility in Erasmus+.

Despite the fact that the funding demand for Erasmus+ mobility between Austria and the U.S. is already very high, the seminar gave an opportunity to showcase and strengthen the strategic use of Erasmus+ in working together between Austria and the United States. As part of the seminar, both the Austrian and the U.S. university systems were represented.
