The Austrian Agency for Education and Internationalisation OeAD (formerly the Austrian Exchange Service) is a non-profit limited liability company of the federal government. It is commissioned by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research. Its legal mandate is: " Implementation of national, European and international cooperation measures in science and research as well as measures in fostering of the arts, higher education, school education, and education and training." The OeAD has three main tasks:
1. Internationalisation of education and science
2. Strengthening the interface between education and society
3. Expanding quality and transparency in education

The OeAD was founded in 1961 by the Austrian Rectors' Conference with the purpose of supporting foreign students during their stay in Austria. [Summary: Information provided by the editors of the site, partly translated by the editors of Education Worldwide]
