Ausgezeichnete Maturantinnen in den Geisteswissenschaften: Ann-Kristin Müller (3.v.l.), Mara Anima Milena Schilhan (4.v.l.) und Katharina Petritsch (5.v.l.) mit Vizerektor Martin Polaschek (3.v.r.), Gemeinderat Peter Piffl-Percevic (ganz rechts) und Landesrat Michael Schickhofer (2.v.r.) sowie den Laudatorinnen Silvia Schultermandl und Elisabeth Glavic.

JuniorAcademic-Preis an drei exzellente MaturantInnen in GEWI-Fächern vergeben

Er ist die Antwort der Karl-Franzens-Universität Graz auf die Dr. Hans Riegel-Fachpreise, die vergangene Woche an exzellente MaturantInnen in den Fächern Biologie, Chemie, Mathematik und Physik verliehen wurde: Der JuniorAcademic-Preis zeichnet seinerseits hervorragende wissenschaftliche Arbeiten in den Geisteswissenschaften, genauer gesagt in den Fächern Geschichte, Deutsch, Fremdsprachen und Philosophie, aus. Zum insgesamt dritten Mal wurde er verliehen, heuer am Mittwoch, 29. Mai 2013, im Meerscheinschlössl. 


SchülerInnen der AHS- und BHS-Maturaklassen in der gesamten Steiermark hatten die Möglichkeit, ihre Fachbereichsarbeiten einer Jury, bestehend aus WissenschafterInnen der Karl-Franzens-Universität sowie SchulvertreterInnen und einer Mitarbeiterin der KinderUniGraz, zur Begutachtung vorzulegen. Aus  23 Einreichungen wurden schließlich die drei besten Arbeiten gekürt.

 

Vizerektor Martin Polaschek gratulierte den drei Preisträgerinnen, gemeinsam mit Landesrat Michael Schickhofer und Gemeinderat Peter Piffl-Percevic, zu ihrem Engagement sowie hohem wissenschaftlich Niveau, und überreichte die Preise. Die Gewinnerinnen erhielten jeweils einen Büchergutschein im Wert von 400 Euro, ihre Schulen einen Büchergutschein im Wert von 100 Euro.

 

Die PreisträgerInnen 2013 sind:

 

  • Katharina Petritsch (BG/BRG Judenburg) - "Die Verführung zum Bösen als Motiv in der Literatur am Beispiel von Goethes 'Faust' und Wildes 'Bildnis des Dorian Gray' und die Auswirkungen auf Handlung und Charaktere"
  • Ann-Kristin Müller (BG/BRG Kirchengasse): "The end of apartheid in South Africa - new chances for young black students?"
  • Mara Anima Milena Schilhan (GIBS) - "Un pas en avant, deux pas en arrière ? La situation de la femme en Tunisie"

 

Der JuniorAcademic-Preis, 2011 das erste Mal verliehen, ist eine Initiative der KinderUniGraz, die ihrerseits von der Friedrich-Schmiedl-Stiftung und dem Bundesministerium für Wissenschaft und Forschung unterstützt wird.

Greenery on the rise: over 500 new flowers, perennials and shrubs on campus

Bright blooms and fresh greenery make our hearts beat faster in spring. But it is not just us humans who delight in this colourful growth. For many animals, this splendour provides, above all, food and habitat. There has recently been an increase in this on the University of Graz campus. More than 500 native flowers, perennials and shrubs have been planted on strips of fallow land around Universitätsplatz 2.

Around the world in eight stops: the Long Night of Research at the University of Graz

On 24 April from 5 pm, you can take a short trip around the globe at the University of Graz, discovering pecularities of foreign countries or new local features in the entrance hall of the University Library. The itinerary takes you through introduced animal species, political attitudes and the omnipotence of algorithms. There will also be a programme in the historic reading hall, as well as at the UniGraz@Museum and the University Archive.

Building biological bridges: Chemist discovers an ecological tool for the pharmaceutical industry

Building a relationship on a solid foundation is also important in chemistry. To produce medicines, disinfectants or plant protection products, stable bonds between carbon atoms must be formed. Conventional chemical methods rely on environmentally harmful reagents and solvents to carry out the desired reaction. This process also produces unusable by-products. Chemist Lilla Gal has discovered an enzyme that enables the same process to take place efficiently and sustainably. The results of her research were recently published in the prestigious journal Angewandte Chemie.

Higher Education Strategy 2040: Austria’s universities on course for the future

Austria has 77 higher education institutions, which is above the EU average – but does this really make sense? The new Higher Education Strategy 2040 focuses on cooperation rather than mergers. As one of the six largest universities in Austria, the University of Graz plays a central role in this.
