Here is our team with all of our seven team members and the two supervisors.

We’ve got a new office!!!!!

As the university building unfortunately didn’t have enough space for our team we were told that we are getting a special place where we can do our work - a container! 

Now, it may sound a bit uncomfortable but the interior is surprisingly modern and spacey. We have an isle in the middle for meetings and several work places with PC’s on the side. Other highlights of our accommodation include a coffee machine and stationery supplies from the FH.

On the wall we have our preliminary project timeline / workplan. On the right we have the list of all our team members with their qualities and abilities.

After having several meetings in our new office we have grown to love it and appreciate the proximity to the university a lot.

Stay tuned for updates with the first results of our work, they are coming soon!

Our team building experience

One week after the semester started in the FHSTP, we were divided into our final project groups and that is how we found each other.

To get to know each other better we were sent on an adventurous trip in the Wachau, Austria. Our group was put into some stressful and challenging situations where we had to work and make decisions as a group as we hiked through the mountains. 

After reaching our destination, the castle Dürnstein, and to give our feet some rest we were invited to take a walk around the vineyards and wine cellars of Wachau. 

The whole day and especially in the evening we were put through numerous challenges, but at the end of it we came out with a stronger team spirit and fun experiences we will remember for a while!
