Academic Head Prof. (FH) Dr Martin Waiguny welcomes the new study options: "The world is facing major global problems, such as environmental changes and social challenges. It is therefore important to find sustainable solutions to the changing environmental conditions quickly. This is why we are strengthening the sustainability focus at IMC Krems. The Green Jobs campaign 'Climate Game-Changer' with Climate Protection Minister Leonore Gewessler is in the same vein."
