Who We Are – and What We Stand For
RETrans is a joint initiative of the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria and the University of Applied Sciences BFI Vienna. Both institutions stand for the highest academic quality, scientific independence, and a strong regional anchoring in Austria.
This collaboration ensures credibility, reliability, and practical relevance – providing real value for students, teachers, educational institutions, and companies.
The project is funded by the Federal Ministry for Innovation, Mobility and Infrastructure (BMIMI) and implemented within the Logistics Funding Programme by the Schieneninfrastruktur Dienstleistungsgesellschaft mbH (SCHIG mbH).
