About
Webster Vienna Private University is a private American university in Vienna, Austria housed in Palais Wenkheim. Founded in 1981, it is one of the oldest private institutions of higher learning in Austria. Webster Vienna is known for being the first university in Austria to offer dual US-Austrian degree accreditation, the first to teach exclusively in English, and the first to offer an accredited Master of Business Administration program in 1985. It is affiliated with Webster University in St. Louis, USA, but remains a distinct and separate institution within the wider Webster University Network across Europe and Asia. The university follows a Humboldtian model of higher education in learning structure, integrating faculty research into teaching.
