Numerous Visits by Politicians

Over the past week, we welcomed several politicians to the St. Pölten UAS in order to engage in exchange on various topical issues:

• Together, Minister of Defence Klaudia Tanner and Lower Austrian Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner gained an impression of the training in Cyber Security offered at the St. Pölten UAS. During her visit, the Minister signed a cooperation agreement with the association “Cyber Security Austria” that seeks to intensify the exchange between the Austrian Armed Forces and the association.
