University of Vienna - Location

Location

The University of Vienna does not have one joint campus. The academic facilities occupy more than sixty locations throughout the city of Vienna. The historical main building on the Ringstraße constitutes the university's centre and is commonly referred to as "die Uni". The most other larger university facilities and lecture halls are located nearby in the area of Vienna's first and ninth district: the so-called new lecture hall complex (NIG), the lecture hall complex Althanstraße (UZA), the so-called Campus on the premises of the historical general hospital of Vienna, the faculty of law (Juridicum) and many more.
Also worth mentioning is the Vienna Observatory, which belongs to the university, and the Institute for University Sports (USI), which offers training and recreational possibilities to all students of the university.
In addition, the University of Vienna maintains facilities outside of Vienna in the Austrian provinces of Lower Austria, Upper Austria and Salzburg (state). These are mainly research and experimental departments for Biology, Astrophysics and Sports.
