Business Trip Management

We support employees of RWTH Aachen in planning their business trips. In addition, we calculate the reimbursement of costs for business trips. As part of the university‘s internationalization the number of business trips abroad in recent years has increased sharply.

Online Bookings

We provide employees with the relevant corporate client portal of RWTH Aachen for online bookings. With regards to the steadily growing number of business trips and thus the growing budget for travel costs we also, together with the Division of Central Purchasing, negotiate special conditions for travel services such as rental cars, hotels or flights with travel agencies. All institutions of higher learning can use these facilities via the Travel Management in our intranet.
