Gender Equality Office

Gender equality and gender equity are structurally anchored at TU Wien through the Gender Equality Office which was established in 2005 in accordance with the UG 2002, as well as the Career Advancement Plan for Women and the Equality Opportunities Plan. The aim of creating a gender-equitable and non-discriminatory study and work environment is seen as the responsibility of all TU members.

The fields of activity of the Gender Equality Office include the promotion of gender and diversity competence as well as protection against discrimination and sexual harassment. In addition to various awareness-raising formats, the Gender Equality Office advises and supports the rectorate, faculties, staff, academics, teaching staff and students in matters and measures relating to these topics. The Gender Equality Office also provides a wide range of courses on gender and diversity.

Our strategy is based on 3 pillars which are interconnected:

  1. "Fix the Numbers": strategies and measures that focus on increasing the proportion of women and other underrepresented groups
  2. "Fix the Institutions": strategies and measures aimed at structural, organizational cultural change and transparency in organizations, leading to greater gender equality and protection against discrimination
  3. "Fix the Knowledge": Strategies and measures that lead to an increase in gender and diversity competence in the areas of teaching and research, establishing sex, gender and intersectional perspectives as an integral part of science, research and technology.
