The MCI Management Center Innsbruck is a modern university which targets excellence not only in teaching but also in R&D for regional, national and international clients as an integral part of a holistic concept of competence supply.

The MCI’s research competence is delivered by the various study program leaders and full-time faculty members on the one hand and through close collaboration with external lecturers – including a large number of experts and decision makers from the scientific and business communities – on the other.

The MCI’s R&D activities have a particular focus on practical relevance and interdisciplinary working.

In view of the fact that access to knowledge, information and resources is facilitated and in many cases only possible with the help of networking, internal and external networks have been made a pillar of R&D at the MCI. That in turn makes global sources of knowledge and competence accessible to local and regional actors.

For the MCI, the success of research and development work is to be measured in terms of its practical applicability and usefulness for the client, its scientific basis, its social relevance and the added value it brings to teaching at the MCI. In this context the focus is on the SME-based regional economy of the Tyrol and companies’ needs in terms of process optimization and product development.
