The demand for the Bachelor's degree programme in Psychology at the University of Graz once again exceeded the 1000 mark this year, with 1067 applicants for 230 places. Accordingly, there was a great rush at the Graz fair, where 679 candidates took the written entrance examination in Hall A on 22 August 2023.

In the written test, students were asked about skills relevant to their studies. A large university team led by Andrea Penz and Wolfgang Schleifer ensured that everything ran smoothly.
The results and the ranking of the applicants will be available on the online application tool from mid-September. https://studienzugang.uni-graz.at

Fair distribution: Researchers determine just greenhouse gas budgets for all EU regions

Ten years ago, on 12 December 2015, the Paris Climate Agreement was signed at the UN Climate Conference. In order to limit global warming to well below two degrees, only a certain amount of CO2 may be emitted worldwide. While the focus was originally on national emission targets, more than 200 subnational regions and almost 300 cities have now adopted their own targets. But how many emissions are they fairly entitled to? Researchers at the University of Graz have now developed transparent criteria for fair distribution at the subnational level for the first time and determined corresponding greenhouse gas budgets for all European regions. The paper was published today in the scientific journal Nature Communications.
