Contact SSC Philosophy

Students can contact the SSC online through the Servicedesk, via telephone within our given telephone hours or in person by appointment and within consultation hours. 

Before contacting us, please consult the extensive information provided on our website first. You may already find a solution to your problem. Please also see our list of FAQs.

  • For concrete questions regarding organization of studies and administrative issues and for the submission of documents please use the Servicedesk only. Avoid contacting SSC employees via their personal email adress, as this may lead to a delay in processing your request.

Note: if you don't have an active u:account, meaning you don't currently study or work at the University of Vienna, please write an email to philosophie.spl@univie.ac.at.

  • For general requests, consultations or similar matters, we invite you to contact us during telephone- or in-person consultation hours. Information regarding days and times for consultation can be found below.

We strive to process your concerns promptly. Nonetheless, we ask for your patience if processing times take longer, especially at the beginning of the semester or during the holiday periods.

Please avoid writing multiple messages on the same topic. If you call or come into the office hours after you have written a ticket, let the employee know on the phone or during the office hours so that they can remove your message from the requests to be processed.
