Tasks and Objectives - Triple Track Strategy

In its structuring and alignment MedUni Vienna relies on the "triple track" strategy. Research, education and patient care represent the three cornerstones of the university's system. This enables medical science to respond flexibly to the continually changing demands of the state and society. In the process, maintenance of health as well as therapy, abatement of symptoms and prevention of diseases stand in the foreground.

International competition in relation to medical research and the development of innovative solutions to issues relevant to society such as healthcare or age pyramids are among MedUni Vienna's core tasks. Also the disciplines of ethics, medical law, care related research, palliative medicine and health economics are of central importance.
