Mehrwert

Die Universitäten bringen dem Staat mehr, als sie kosten, zeigt eine aktuelle Studie

Bildung ist ein Gewinn, auch finanziell. Die Universitäten bringen dem Staat nach drei bis fünf Jahren 3,5 Milliarden Euro an Steuereinnahmen - während sie dem Bund 3,5 Milliarden kosten. Darüber hinaus tragen sie jährlich zehn Prozent zum BIP-Wachstum bei und steigern durch Forschung und Wissensvermittlung langfristig die Produktivität. Innerhalb von drei bis fünf Jahren entstehen sieben Milliarden Euro an Wertschöpfung durch die Arbeit der Universitäten. Das ist das Ergebnis einer WIFO-Studie, die das Bildungsministerium in Auftrag gegeben hat.

>> Link zur Studie

Aufgrund der Teuerung fehlen den österreichischen Universitäten aktuell rund 1,2 Milliarden Euro. Finanzielle Stabilität ist aber gerade auch im Bereich der Forschung enorm wichtig. Sieben junge WissenschafterInnen der Universität Graz erklären deshalb in kurzen Videos, woran sie momentan arbeiten und wie wichtig ihre Erkenntnisse für die Gesellschaft sind. >> Alle weiteren Infos auf der Seite der österreichischen Universitätenkonferenz
