Der Physik-Nobelpreisträger Gerard ´t Hooft sprach über seine Forschung. Er besuchte die Uni Graz auch, weil ein Doktoratskolleg Bilanz feierte

Spitzenforschung macht die Universität Graz international sichtbar. Unsere WissenschafterInnen tragen mit ihrer Arbeit Entscheidendes dazu bei, die Gesellschaft von morgen zu gestalten. Ein sehr gutes Beispiel dafür ist das Doktoratskolleg (DK) „Hadronen im Vakuum, in Kernen und Sternen“. Exzellenter wissenschaftlicher Nachwuchs wurde in den vergangenen zwölf Jahren durch internationalen Austausch und Zugang zu aktuellen Forschungsergebnissen gefördert. Insgesamt investierten Wissenschaftsfonds FWF, Universität Graz und Land Steiermark 4,7 Millionen Euro in das erfolgreiche Projekt.

Die Bilanz kann sich sehen lassen: Immerhin waren bislang knapp 60 DissertantInnen aus 17 Nationen im Doktoratskolleg beschäftigt, 42 haben auf dem Gebiet der Teilchenphysik promoviert, drei davon sogar sub auspiciis, resümierte Univ.-Prof. Dr. Christoph Gattringer, Leiter des DK und Dekan der Naturwissenschaftlichen Fakultät, beim Festkolloquium am 27. Februar 2018 im Meerscheinschlössl. In den vergangenen Tagen traf sich die Teilchenphysik-Welt in Graz, in mehreren Workshops und rund 40 Vorträgen tauschen sich WissenschafterInnen aus. Den Auftakt zum Festkolloquium gab Robert Pisarski vom Brookhaven National Laboratory. Als „Highlight der Veranstaltung“ zog der niederländische Physiker Gerard `t Hooft (Universität Utrecht), der gemeinsam mit Martin Veltman 1999 den Nobelpreis für Physik bekommen hat, mit dem Vortrag „Schwarze Löcher und Quantenmechanik“ das (Fach-)Publikum in seinen Bann. Vizerektorin Renate Dworczak, die zu ihren Agenden auch die wissenschaftliche Lehr- und Forschungskooperation NAWI Graz zählt, begrüßte den Ehrengast und das Publikum im Namen der Universität.

Career Booster: How the Research Careers Campus supports researchers

They are innovative, creative and productive – researchers who have not yet been appointed to a professorship make a massive contribution to a university’s research output. To provide them with even better support on their career path, the University of Graz has established the Research Careers Campus. The official launch took place on 22 April 2026 with a ‘festival’.

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.

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.
