Activities
 

Events

One of the main activities of the Marketing and Communications Office is organizing and handling WU’s in-house events, for example planning the award ceremony for the WU Manager of the Year, implementing the WU Competence Day or managing the Talenta event, which includes the Best Paper Awards. We also plan and manage academic graduation ceremonies and award ceremonies honoring distinguished members of the business community and society. Organizing and holding events for potential students are also part of our job, for example participating in the BeSt3 Job, Education and Training Fair, or organizing our annual Open House, attended by high-school age students from all over Austria.

 

Publications and Corporate Design

Marketing & Communications coordinates the publication of the WU Annual Report as well as WU´s Facts & figures and of informational brochures on the bachelor, master, doctorate and PhD programs. We are also responsible for other informational material on WU, for example the WU image brochure. Another part of our job is managing WU’s corporate design, as well as producing and publishing corporate design and web design manuals.

Sponsoring and Fundraising

The Marketing & Communications Office is also involved in WU’s sponsoring and fund raising activities, including the WU Top League program for high potential students in the bachelor programs and the WU alumni folder. Marketing & Communications manages individual fund raising projects and is responsible for donor liaison and support.

 

Web


We are also responsible for WU’s web presentation. The Marketing and Communications Office acts as a contact person for WU’s academic units and service centers, designs and maintains the homepage and provides information on the WU corporate web design guidelines. We work together with the IT Services department to make sure the WU internet presentation is up-to-date and meets the changing demands of the University and the public.
