Für Lehrveranstaltungen können Sie sich noch bis 22. Feber anmelden. So funktioniert das aus dem In- und Ausland. // You can still register for courses until 22 February. This is how it works from home and abroad

Nach einem Cyber-Angriff hat die Universität Graz zusätzliche Sicherheitsmaßnahmen eingebaut. Damit Sie auf Ihre E-Mails oder das UNIGRAZonline von außerhalb des Campus zugreifen können, müssen Sie folgende Schritte befolgen:

  1. Sie müssen eine so genannte Multi-Faktor-Authentifizierung einrichten. Die funktioniert ähnlich wie beim Online-Banking. Dazu besuchen Sie bitte die Seite https://mfa-setup.uni-graz.at/. Eine Video-Anleitung finden Sie hier. Für die Multi-Faktor-Authentifizierung müssen Sie eine App auf Ihrem Smartphone installieren.
    ACHTUNG: Das funktioniert nur aus Österreich! Wenn Sie gerade im Ausland sind, folgen Sie bitte der Anleitung hier.
     
  2. Sie müssen ein sogenanntes VPN (ein virtuelles privates Netzwerk) einrichten. Das funktioniert, indem Sie „Cisco AnyConnect“ installieren. Alle Anleitungen finden Sie hier.
     
  3. Wenn Sie sich nun über dieses VPN anmelden, brauchen Sie auch den Code für die Multi-Faktor-Authentifizierung. Danach können Sie wie gewohnt auf die Systeme der Universität Graz, auf UNIGRAZonline, Ihre E-Mails etc. zugreifen.

Bei technischen Problemen hilft der digitale Assistent weiter, sonst wenden Sie sich bitte an den Servicedesk der uniIT.

============================

After a cyber-attack, the University of Graz has installed additional security measures. In order to access your e-mails or UNIGRAZonline from off campus, you have to follow these steps:

1. you need to set up a so-called multi-factor authentication. This works in a similar way to online banking. To do this, please visit https://mfa-setup.uni-graz.at/. You can find a video tutorial here. For multi-factor authentication, you need to install an app on your smartphone.
ATTENTION: This only works within the Austria! If you are currently in another country, please follow the instructions here.

2. you need to set up a so-called VPN (a virtual private network). This works by installing "Cisco AnyConnect". You can find the instructions here.

If you now log in via this VPN, you will also need the code for multi-factor authentication. After that you can access the systems of the University of Graz, UNIGRAZonline, your e-mails etc. as usual.

In case of technical problems, please contact the uniIT service desk.

Austria’s emissions rose in 2025: University of Graz researchers analyse the causes

The Environment Agency Austria has today published the figures for the country’s greenhouse gas emissions in 2025. While emissions fell sharply year on year from 2022 to 2024, they rose again by just under 0.7 per cent in 2025. Researchers at the University of Graz have analysed how much of this increase was due to structural changes in the economy and how much was attributable to external factors over which there is little control. “In 2025, the colder winter compared with 2024 increased emissions by 0.81 per cent, while the weak economy reduced them by 0.38 per cent. If we factor out these influences, we find an underlying increase of 0.26 per cent compared with the previous year,” reports economist Karl Steininger. “This clearly means that Austria is not on track to meet its climate targets, which require a substantial reduction in emissions by 2030.”

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.
