English Cinema Haydn is an official sponsor of MODUL University Vienna

We are pleased to announce a new partnership with English Cinema Haydn, or ‘’Haydn Kino’’, the city’s leading English cinema, which has become our newest Bronze Sponsor.

Christian Dörfler, Managing Director of the cinema on Vienna’s popular shopping street the Mariahilferstraße, is enthusiastic about reaching out to MU’s more than 60% international population, and as well as Austrian students studying in English. ‘’Students and the international community are very important target groups for our cinemas. Through working with MODUL University we can deepen this focus and further internationalize our cinema; the cooperation also helps us to develop innovative offerings. The idea of screening English theater, live from the stage, is one example of an idea from our international guests that has come to our attention.’’

MU President Prof. Karl Wöber, also sees a number of advantages in the partnership, ‘’the English Cinema is a Viennese institution that has excelled in recent years, and has positioned itself as a leading quality cinema for the English-speaking segment. Such success stories from the domestic leisure industry serve as best practice examples for those of our students who themselves intend to pursue a business venture in the industry. ‘’

English Cinema Haydn will sponsor an excursion for all new MU students during the twice annual Orientation Week to visit the cinema, and an ongoing ‘’Movie of the month’’ where MU students receive reduced entry for a recommended new release.

Further cooperation is in the works – discussions for a series of movies with a focus on sustainability is being planned, as is further collaboration with both MODUL Career and MU’s Student Service. Guests to the cinema will also be treated to an entertaining 30-second advertising spot created by MODUL University News Network producers Attems and Friends before their chosen film begins.
