Function Fee
The activity in the Student Union is voluntary, i.e. you don’t get an hourly wage, but there is a function fee (more details on https://www.oeh.ac.at/funktionsgebuehr). At the moment the heads of departments receive 245€ per month and every assistant receives 100€ per month. You get an additional tolerance semester for each semester (up to four semesters), where you don’t pay tuition fees and get ECTS.

It is our goal to actively support you in your projects.
We offer various scholarships, the special project grant (Sonderprojektförderung) and the “lightning grant” (Blitzförderung), to support student projects financially. In addition, we are continually working to develop new formats that bring students from different departments of Angewandte (and beyond) together. Our goal is to promote exchange, enable new collaborations and create a critical, diverse discourse between artistic practice and contemporary culture.
