Social & Non Profit – Working Effectively, Creating Meaning

Not all areas of our society are focused on economic profit. In a functioning democracy, institutions that add value in terms of quality of life, justice, and social cohesion play a central role. We find this in public administration, social services, healthcare, energy supply, public transport, culture, sports, housing, and institutions such as the fire department and emergency services
Whether through government agencies, non-profit organizations, or committed companies – wherever social responsibility is taken on, qualified professionals are in demand. People who want to work with expertise, commitment, and a sense of purpose.

The University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria trains precisely these experts: in the fields of society & management and social work, it offers bachelor's and master's degree programs that combine professional excellence with social relevance. The practical degree programs also allow for a flexible combination of study and work.
