In the blog series "The Office: Behind the Scenes of your Med-Tech Department", we introduce you to the team behind the Medical & Health Technologies Department, which is responsible for the organization and design of your daily study routine.

Who takes care of course planning, manages the behind-the-scenes operations and is responsible for all events, policies and general procedures of the degree program? The department's administrative assistants: Theresa Steixner and Madlen Singer.

We give you an exclusive look behind the scenes of the MedTech Department and introduce you to its organizational talents:

Education/Career: Theresa graduated with a Bachelor's degree here at MCI and then worked at Innsbruck Airport in marketing and communications.

At MCI since: August 2020

Favourite task/area: My job includes various tasks, so I can't really pick a favorite. That is what makes my job so fascinating. However, I am also happy to organize activities for the MedTech team outside of work.


Madlen Singer: 

Area of responsibility: Assistant to the Head of the Department, responsible for strategic planning and organization of the Bachelor's degree programs in Medical, Health and Sports Engineering and Mechatronics Medical Technology. Marketing representative as well as process and project manager in the MedTech department. Madlen also supports the team with research applications.

Together, Theresa and Madlen are the heart and center of the department and are the ones who always know everything about anything. Further, they ensure that the studies programs run smoothly. Theresa & Madlen impress not only with their professional expertise but also with their interpersonal skills, and they are always in for a coffee or an after-work drink.
