Kalivoda Eva
Assistant to the Vice-Rectorate for Human Resources and Digitalisation
"As a long-standing employee, I particularly value the opportunity to continuously develop myself and to explore diverse and fascinating fields of expertise. What I find especially rewarding is the daily collaboration in an environment shaped by scientific thinking and collegial exchange. The open atmosphere – where solid expertise meets solution-oriented thinking – makes the University of Graz a truly special workplace for me. It’s a place where not only ideas evolve, but also the people behind them."
Elias Moser
Philosopher
"The University of Graz stands out as an employer through its strong research environment and its vibrant academic climate. As a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer in ethics and political philosophy, I have the opportunity to work within an interdisciplinary team that fosters innovation and critical thinking. Moreover, Graz is a lively and culturally rich city that encourages the exchange of ideas and collaboration with international partners."
Andreas Zieger
Electrical engineer
"I like working at the university because, as an electrician, I am responsible for a wide range of areas, which makes the work extremely varied and exciting. I really appreciate the opportunity to further my education in various specialist areas and to work independently. I also feel that my work is valued here, which is often lacking in many other companies. As the father of two children, the family-friendly atmosphere at the university is particularly important to me, as it allows me to combine work and family life in the best possible way."
