Library services

IACA’s in-house library added more books to its collection during 2019 and maintained an extensive electronic database. The library was supported in this regard by financial contributions from the Siemens Integrity Initiative. 

Campus life

IACA is located in Vienna's neighbouring town of Laxenburg which served as a summer getaway for the aristocracy and high society during the times of the Habsburg dynasty. The IACA campus is set in Laxenburg’s Palais Kaunitz-Wittgenstein which dates back to the 17th century and is rich with history, having served as a nobility residence and a prominent women’s educational facility. In 2010, it was renovated by the province of Lower Austria and transformed into a modern campus, with its ancient charm preserved.
