Testimonial: 

“Modul University Vienna is well known as a hub for sustainability, we are following its principles in teaching, research and on campus. The School of Sustainability, Governance, and Methods is the home for sustainability in teaching and research, where scholars like I dedicate our work to sustainability. My research touches upon many real-world sustainability challenges such as climate change, aging societies, socioeconomic inequalities or energy transition. These are all topics we integrate into our teaching especially in the MSc in Sustainable Development, Management and Policy. Students in this program learn how to analyse and how to provide solutions for such challenges.”
