“The University of Salzburg is more than a place of knowledge – it is a place of exchange, growth, and diversity.
As Vice-Rector for Human Resources, it is particularly important to me that all staff members – whether in research, teaching, or administration – are able to contribute their skills, experience, and backgrounds, and are willing to take responsibility for our university.
We are committed to equal opportunities, sustainability, and a culture of mutual respect.
If you would like to become part of a forward-looking university in one of Europe’s most liveable cities, we warmly welcome you.”

– Univ.-Prof. Mag. Dr Elias Felten, Vice-Rector for Human Resources
