Professorial Appointments at the mdw


Striving for quality and excellence across all disciplines as the basis for the profiling and further development of the mdw (Development Plan 2022-24, p. 7). This is one of the strategic goals of the mdw - University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna.

In order to meet these highest quality standards, the mdw is keen to appoint nationally as well as internationally excellent experts in their field.

Professional appointments management, overseen by the department "Organizational Law and Professorial Appointments Management (ORB)", is an essential component of this process, guaranteeing service orientation, efficiency, and security. With their professional expertise and commitment, our colleagues in this department oversee the complex topic of professorial appointment procedures in a manner that ensures the highest level of quality.
