The social program is a mix of social, cultural and international events. Activities may include tours of world-famous museums like the "Albertina", a visit to "Schönbrunn" palace, a Viennese waltz dance class, a hike in the hills surrounding Vienna, a brewery tour, bowling, swimming and many more. The social program also typically includes an opening and a closing event, a Vienna city tour and a visit to a traditional Viennese "Heuriger", where students can experience the unique atmosphere of a typical Austrian wine tavern.

The Intercultural Evening is an integral part of the social program. This event gives participants an opportunity to present their home country to their fellow students by preparing a typical national dish, giving a presentation or performing a dance, so that all participants not only get an impression of Austrian culture but also of the different countries represented by the students. There are no limits to creativity!

It depends on the type of activity. For instance, a city tour of Vienna or a visit to a traditional wine tavern are usually organized for all ISU^WU students and are included in the program fee. For other activities such as visits to museums, students need to cover the admission fees (usually 5 - 25 EUR) themselves.
