To develop hands-on skills and design thinking mindset, students can work in different on-campus Labs, participate in workshops, and yearly organized Hackathons. Moreover, there is a Startup Centerthat has the goal: Salzburg “Salzburg is becoming Austria’s most important startup region – and Salzburg University of Applied Sciences is becoming the most entrepreneur-friendly university in the region.” In June 2022 the new research building "Twin²Sim"officially opened at the campus Kuchl. With its scientific possibilities, the experimental building not only corresponds to the current state of the art, but is also constructed as an energy-efficient, structural timber building. The aim is to develop solutions for technical building systems, components, building envelopes and multi-functional façades, to test them metrologically in experiments and to develop them further. Furthermore, the project [https://retailization.at/ Retail<ization/> 4.0], which started in 2021, is also researching robotics in retail, smart factories and so much more. The Team Retailization 4.0 is working tirelessly on innovative concepts for the future.

Even though the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences is a small university, this does not mean that it lacks any kind of potential. Quite the contrary, due to our size different opportunities can be quite easily taken. This includes different classes held by various departments, research and developments projects done for major companies like Skidata, Sony, Daimler, etc., and events like Ludecat (a Indie-Gaming Competition) or the Robothon(a robotics competition, spannign over 24 hours). The Salzburg University of Applied Sciences is divided into two campuses.
Urstein is a larger campus where 33 study courses are offered. In Kuchl you have the choice between 3 study courses. Students receive training in different disciplines of Engineering, Business and Social Sciences comprising Tourism, Business Management and Social Work, Design, Media & Arts and Health Studies. With its international orientation and focus on innovative research and teaching the university is a pioneer for future-oriented courses and practice-oriented solutions for business and society.

<i>"Salzburg University of Applied Sciences has a research revenue totalling approximately 3,5 million euros per year. Approximately 25% of all third-party funding comes from companies, whilst the remaining three quaters comes from a variety of different public funding agencies. The research skills of our researchers are showcased in approximately 100 R&D projects per year and a number of research publications. The university also utilises cutting-edge technology and high-end laboratory equipment to create a modern, efficient research infrastructure. All of these factors make Salzburg University of Applied Sciences an innovative research and co-operation partner for regional, national and – increasingly – international companies."</i><br />([https://www.fh-salzburg.ac.at/en/research/research-and-development/ https://www.fh-salzburg.ac.at/en/research/research-and-development])

==<span style="font-size:large">'''Collaboration between university and industry'''</span>==
<i>"There are many interfaces to business: experts from companies teach at the Salzburg University of Applied Sciences, students write theses for and with companies, research projects are developed in cooperation with business, and seminars deal with questions from companies. This practical relevance enables students to apply the theoretical knowledge they have acquired in various projects. Companies have the advantage that problems are illuminated and dealt with and the results can be integrated into their business processes."</i>

Students not only get to work on real-life projects that the companies provide them with - there is also an agreement (study.work.support) between numerous companies and the university which makes it possible for students to easily get part-time positions at those partner companies to gain experience relevant to their studies, where they can test out what they learnt and improve their skills through something more tangible than homework.<br />
