In the context of the deve­lo­p­ment process for a “National Strategy for the Social Dimension at Universities”, 3s examined measures that con­tri­bu­te to the social dimension in higher education in Austria via a survey.

In the context of the deve­lo­p­ment process for a “National Strategy on the social dimension in higher education – for a more inclusive access and broader par­ti­ci­pa­ti­on” 3s collected  measures con­tri­bu­ting to the social dimension in higher education in Austria via a survey.

“Social dimension” sum­ma­ri­ses acti­vi­ties that con­tri­bu­te that students and graduates of Higher Education reflect the diversity of the popu­la­ti­on (e.g. regarding social and edu­ca­tio­nal back­ground, gender, disa­bi­li­ty). Furthermore the social dimension includes the con­side­ra­ti­on of specific students’ needs  (e.g. employment, caring respon­si­bi­li­ties, health impairm­ents etc.).
