Ready to pick up a cool hobby in the upcoming term? Excited to meet new interesting people you can share a pizza with or two? Curious about how to construct convincing arguments and practice your public speaking skills? We got you covered! In the summer term 2026, we’ll be having another round of awesome weekly debate trainings 😀
(If you’re fed up with the dreadful February weather and just don’t want to wait until March, you’re also very welcome to join right now! Please join our Discord Server to see when and where we meet in February.)
Kick-off event
As usual, we’ll start things off with our big kick-off event on March 11 at 7 pm at the Teaching Center (TC) in room 1.02 at the Wirtschaftsuniversität (WU), which you definitely shouldn’t miss out on. There you’ll have the chance to get to know us, receive all the relevant info about debating and witness a great show debate!
Weekly trainings
In the following weeks, we’ll meet during lecture periods…
… for German beginners’ training every Monday at 7 pm (starting March 16)
… and for English beginners’ training every Wednesday at 7 pm (starting March 18).
We’ll always be somewhere between the third and fifth floor of the TC building at the WU. For the exact dates and rooms, please refer to the tables below or consider joining our Discord Server, where we’ll always post all the info a few days in advance. If you’re unsure where the rooms exactly are, please have a look at the WU Campusplan.

Attendance
If you can attend all sessions that’s amazing – but we know you are busy so if you can’t attend all sessions that’s also totally fine. Even if they’re best experienced in full, the sessions are mostly self-contained! You also don’t have to be a student or prepare anything specific – just bring yourself (and ideally pen and paper)! We don’t require any prerequisites and no registration is needed but feel free to sign up for the beginners’ training here just to help us gauge interest. Our trainings are also generally free of charge, except for a small membership fee that we only charge once you decide to become a member of our club.
If you have any further questions, you can reach out to us on Discord or send us an email at info@dkwien.at. See you soon!
