5.1.6. University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna, Austria AUSTRIA The University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences Vienna (BOKU), founded in 1872, is guided by the principles of sustainable development and renewable resources management, and is therefore identifying the latest trends in research and education. BOKU covers technology, environmental, social and economic sciences, has currently 10 500 students and 2900 employees. The university offers 8 Bachelor and 27 Master programs (15 are taught in English, among which 5 ERASMUS MUNDUS Master’s) and is one of the most student-friendly and popular universities in Europe. With over 400 industrial cooperation partners, BOKU exhibits its strong engagement in creating a green economy for a sustainable future. The latest research insights are the benchmark of our teaching and the practical applicability of the trainings has a high priority. This combination results in excellent employability skills of our graduates. The diversity of BOKU members and the plurality of the disciplines and fields of activity is a valuable asset for the University. As a place of diversity, BOKU wants to develop and design spaces in which everyone* can move and develop freely. Our aim is to support and promote equality, accessibility, social inclusion, equal opportunities and intergenerational justice. BOKU is about to implement a long-term process of Diversity Strategy to promote gender balance in all organizational units, create an environment free of discrimination and with equal opportunities for all students and staff members, and establish a diversity-oriented organizational culture. The integration of students and employees with disabilities or chronic/mental illnesses is an important concern for the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences. For this reason a special office was established in 2010 in order to ensure equal access to all services and offers of BOKU for the target group and to reduce possible „barriers“. It is important not to limit accessibility to a structural one within the academic environment. Accessibility at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna means offering all members of BOKU barrier-free access to buildings, media, research, education and, above all, people. Since January 2021 a new Coordination Office for Gender Equality, Diversity and Accessibility was established.
