Our graduates are clearly our ambassadors and our network in the business world and in various institutions. Some of them have told us what special things they bring together.
We look forward to hearing your story too! Please contact us via our alumni story sheet.

"We deal with all specialist areas of sustainable building construction planning and apply innovative methods such as Building Information Modelling and LEAN Design," he explains. "This means that we plan and coordinate all the trades required to construct a building." This includes not only traditional building services engineering, but also architecture, structural design and specialised topics such as building physics, fire protection and building certifications.
Around 80 specialist planners work in his department alone.
What I find particularly attractive is that there are always new challenges. We are very interested in our further development and strive for challenging and technologically demanding projects. What our customers appreciate most is that we provide them with holistic advice with our operational construction expertise in the background and can therefore respond flexibly to their project.
Klaus Szep, graduate of the FH Burgenland
As a graduate of the HTL Pinkafeld, studying building technology and building management at the FH Burgenland was an obvious choice for Szep. "What is taught and dealt with there is still extremely promising for the future," he is convinced. 20 years of professional experience later - including 10 years in an international context - he knows two things for sure:
Firstly, the importance of the topic continues to grow! In many projects, technical building equipment has already overtaken the traditional building trades in terms of investment volume. The most important factor in whether a project is a success is usually decided in the MEP - because ultimately the MEP is largely responsible for whether a building works or not.
Secondly, I went abroad straight after university and worked in the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Switzerland for around 10 years. This experience showed me that we have nothing to hide with our education. Graduates of the Burgenland University of Applied Sciences are very well equipped and can apply their expertise anywhere and work successfully.
This is another reason why alumni of his former degree programme are very welcome as employees at pde. "With this training, you are extremely broadly positioned. You have a better focus across the entire project - you are the generalist among all the professionals," Szep is convinced.
PORR and FH Burgenland are also keen to work together on innovation. "We discussed digitalisation in building technology with the people in charge at the UAS years ago. As a company, we also jumped on this future-oriented topic at a very early stage."
