Unlocking Cultural Heritage: Successful Launch of "Visual Heritage" PhD Program

In an event held yesterday, the Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien) and St. Pölten University of Applied Sciences (FH St. Pölten) officially inaugurated the collaborative PhD program, "Visual Heritage." Funded by the Austrian Science Fund (FWF) and in partnership with the Christian Doppler Research Association (CDG) under the doc.funds.connect program, this initiative brings together TU Wien and Fachhochschule St Pölten to delve into the analysis and exploration of large-scale media collections from our cultural heritage.
