Schools of Tourism - Except for schools of cookery, which were founded 
towards the end of the Austro-Hungarian monarchy (especially that of 
the Innkeepers´ Co-operative of Landlords in Vienna in 1900) - 
schools of tourism were first founded in the Second Republic as 
tourism in Austria gained momentum. They were mainly established by 
the Chambers of Commerce with the help of private associations, 
gradually came under state administration and were later standardised. 
Since 1993 there have been public vocational secondary schools for 
tourism (Hoehere gewerbliche Lehranstalten fuer Tourismus) with 
five-year programmes, giving access to university studies, in 
Neusiedl, Villach, Krems, Bad Ischl, Bad Leonfelden, Siezenheim, Bad 
Gleichenberg, Innsbruck, Bludenz and in the 19%%sup th/%  district of 
Vienna, as well as the Hotelfachschule, Tourismusfachschule, and 
Gastgewerbefachschule, each offering 3-year programmes with different 
emphasis on various subjects.
