The university in the Tyrolean provincial capital, founded in 1669 by Emperor Leopold I, served several thinkers of the Austrian School as a place of work, even though the comparatively small university was rather unpopular among professors.
Eugen Böhm von Bawerk, however, spent a very happy time here in the Tyrolean Alps. In 1882, he was charged with the temporary teaching of economics at the University of Innsbruck. He then worked as an associate professor and, from 1884 until his move to the Ministry of Finance in 1889, as a full professor. At the University of Innsbruck, Viktor Mataja first became an associate professor in 1890 and, in 1892, as Böhm von Bawerk's successor, a full professor, until his move to Vienna in 1897. Hermann von Schullern zu Schrattenhofen worked for many years at the university of his native city, from 1922 to 1925 even as rector. Hans Bayer received an associate professorship at the University of Innsbruck in 1937 and returned there after the Second World War.
