CUAS campus
The campus of the educational institution is suburban. The advantages of such a location include the ability to quickly get to the city, access to various types of recreation (in nature and in the city) and a close-knit student community. During the period of study, students can use the university library, where they can do homework and write scientific papers. Foreigners who come to CUAS through exchange programs study and live with local students. Thus, the university promotes intercultural exchange and the establishment of interethnic relations.
If you want to stay in Austria after graduation, you can apply for a job seeker visa that will allow you to live and work in the country for another 2 years. Look for more immigration options in our article.
