City, culture and food

Culture is writ large in the festival city of Salzburg, and the University of Salzburg also regularly hosts a wide variety of events. Culinary delights should not be neglected either: Drop by one of the university dining halls or visit one of the many restaurants in Salzburg’s old town.

• Events at the PLUS

  In addition to courses, various events take place at the University of Salzburg on an ongoing basis. These are not only for students, but also for prospective students and the general public.

  Highlights at the beginning and end of studies:

  PLUSinformiert: Anyone who wants to study at the University of Salzburg should visit the Open Day – it takes place every year in March.

  Sponsorship and graduation ceremony: At this ceremony, the academic title is solemnly awarded by the rector of PLUS.

  Event calendar of the PLUS and the ÖH: A regular look at the event calendar of the PLUS and the  event calendar of the ÖH Salzburg informs you about the current offers.

• Food options

  Between lectures and studying, there is little time to cook fresh food every day? Don’t worry, the refectories and cafeterias at the University of Salzburg offer a variety of ways to get through the university day fortified. Whether it’s a revitalising coffee in the morning, a healthy meal at lunchtime or a small snack in between – with the student ID and the “Mensa Card”, varied food and drink remains affordable for students.

  Outside of university opening hours, the culinary offerings of renowned restaurants in the city of Salzburg are available. In addition, members of a “FoodCoop” can do their shopping fairly, seasonally and regionally.
