Für die Uni vereint: Nicht nur Vorsitzender Rainer Niemann (3. v. r.), sondern der gesamte Senat untermauern die Forderung nach einem Teuerungsausgleich. Foto: Uni Graz/Tzivanopoulos

Der Forderung nach zusätzlichen Finanzmitteln verleiht der Senat der Universität Graz in einer Stellungnahme Nachdruck.

„Bislang ist die Steiermark eine der forschungsstärksten Regionen Europas. Bildung, Forschung und Entwicklung sind wichtige Multiplikatoren für die Wirtschaft am Standort und in der Region. Hier zu sparen, heißt, die Zukunftsfähigkeit der Steiermark und Österreichs zu gefährden“, warnte Senatsvorsitzender Rainer Niemann im Vorfeld der Kundgebung am 15. November. Die Forderung nach einem Ausgleich der durch die Teuerung entstandenen Mehrkosten untermauern sämtliche Mitglieder des universitären Gremiums und beschlossen einstimmig eine Stellungnahme an Minister Polaschek. Neben verschlechterten Studienbedingungen und einem Qualitätsverlust in Lehre und Forschung verweisen sie auch auf Braindrain, Fachkräftemangel und eine Schwächung der Wettbewerbsfähigkeit als Konsequenzen der Finanznot.
„Wir sehen die Budgetkrise als Lernende, Lehrende und Forschende. Die Finanzierung der Universität Graz ist ein zentrales Anliegen aller Angehörigen“, betont Niemann. Diese Einigkeit noch einmal zu untermauern und bei den weiteren Verhandlungen ins Treffen führen zu können, war Ziel der Stellungnahme.

Electrifying: Researchers film the first moments on the way from light to electricity

Physicists at the University of Graz (Austria), in collaboration with colleagues from Marburg University and Forschungszentrum Jülich (Germany), have achieved a scientific breakthrough. For the first time, the generation of electrical energy from light has been filmed and described theoretically. This work is of far-reaching significance, not least for optimising sustainable energy production from photovoltaics. This is because it provides fundamental building blocks for understanding the physical processes that take place, for example, in organic solar cells. The paper was published in the journal Physical Review X, one of the world’s most prestigious physics journals.

How can we teach using YouTube and AI? The University of Graz is strengthening media education in schools

A journey through the blood vessels using VR headsets brings biology lessons to life. An interactive quiz brings physics to life. The YouTube video explains the First World War. Whilst mobile phones are increasingly being banned from the classroom, social media platforms, apps and AI are playing an ever-greater role in knowledge transfer at school. But how can teaching with media be made even more effective? What are the challenges in media-based teaching? At the University of Graz, researchers are discussing these issues at a conference being held in Austria for the first time.

Jurassic Sounds: Biologist reconstructs insect songs from 165 million years ago

It was apparently not just the roars of the dinosaurs that made up the soundscape of the animal world during the Jurassic period. Crickets and grasshoppers communicated through a variety of songs and high-pitched sounds, as Thorin Jonsson from the Institute of Biology at the University of Graz discovered together with colleagues from the universities of Lincoln, Bristol (UK), Beijing (China) and Tempe (USA). The findings on what are so far the oldest traces of sound on Earth have just been published in the journal PNAS.
