The Faculty has always considered itself an interdisciplinary faculty. Research focus primarily on examining the entrepreneurial issues that arise during the course of the company life cycle, such as starting-up, development and growth, organisation, leadership, succession, and the restructuring of businesses. Special emphasis is placed on the analysis of micro- and macro-economic, legal, spatial and social structures and processes, as well as innovations, linked to the consideration of regional development and of aspects relating to energy and environment.

All Informatics degree programmes focus on Applied Informatics. Hence, most lectures are complemented by practical courses (at most 30 participants) in order to provide hands-on-experience. The programmes aim to provide the students with problem-solving competences and knowledge of the fundamental methodologies, so that they can easily adjust to technological paradigm shifts. Additionally, there is a close connection to the research activities (research-driven teaching) where each Master specialisation is supported by at least two internationally reputed research groups.

https://www.aau.at/en/tewi/

The research groups (Information Systems, Intelligent Systems and Business Informatics, System Security, Semantic Systems, Information and Communication Systems, Interactive Systems, Software Engineering, Distributed Systems, Multimedia Communication) run nationally and internationally funded research projects and co-operation with the industry. Besides that, all groups contribute to the universitys key research area Networked & autonomous Systems as well as the multi-disciplinary research areas Energy Management & Energy Technology and Self-organizing Systems.

Interactive and Distributed Multimedia Systems

The Bachelor's degree programme Applied Informatics provides a well-balanced education on fundamental knowledge in the field of informatics and mathematics, as well as providing a specialised qualification for the design, development and implementation of complex software and information systems. Additionally, the curriculum includes courses to provide knowledge about fields of application, and methodological, social and personal skills. The programme offers several specialisations (to prepare for the Master) and includes a group-based work on a software project.

The Master in Applied Informatics builds upon the Bachelor's degree in Applied Informatics lets students advance their problem-solving competence and domain knowledge. Students also acquire solid expertise and skills in other fields of Informatics and gain in-depth insights into industrial applications. The curriculum includes an optional internship and offers courses for the following specialisations: Business Information Systems, Distributed Multimedia Systems, Information and System Security, Knowledge and Data Engineering, and Software Engineering.

The institute is committed to the legal objectives of the universities and the "constructive alignment" approach. This means that, quality teaching is given when the social, institutional and curricular objectives are reached as well as students are supported in their learning process by active engagement and by including links between research and innovation. Lifelong learning is considered as the principal concern involving recognition of prior learning and student-centered learning.

The scientific work at the institute is focused on basic research, applied research and evaluation research, which are in the tradition of critical-constructive social science. Through the use of qualitative and quantitative methods as well as through regional, national and international cooperation, comprehensive research is carried out in the departments as well as across departments and institutes.

We teach students the theoretical principles of Mathematics, as well as practice-oriented and practical methods. To supplement the compulsory subjects, students can select specialised subjects from one focus area. Special emphasis is placed on the development of mathematical models and appropriate solution methods. One of the crucial elements of the practical orientation of our master program is a compulsory internship lasting several weeks. Furthermore, students can acquire an additional application-oriented and interdisciplinary qualification by taking extension subjects.

The spectrum of research ranges from theoretical basics to specific applications. The fields of research represented here cover an especially wide area within mathematics: Discrete Mathematics: Algebra and number theory, graph theory, analysis of algorithms, analytic combinatorics, cryptography. Dynamic Systems: Non-autonomous and numerical dynamics, bifurcation theory. Inverse Problems: Regularisation, image processing, parameter identificationin partial differential equations. Optimisation: Algorithms for NP-hard problems, semidefinite programming.

Discrete Mathematics, Applied Analysis

Technical Mathematics teaches students the theoretical principles of Mathematics, as well as practice-oriented and practical methods. Special emphasis is placed on the development of mathematical models and appropriate solution methods. To supplement the compulsory subjects, students can select between specialised subjects from the focus areas of Applied Analysis, Applied Statistics, and Discrete Mathematics. This is further expanded to include knowledge of programming, mathematical and statistical software, as well as the choice of one extension subjects.

The Master’s degree programme in Mathematics teaches students advanced and in-depth knowledge and skills in the field of (Applied) Mathematics and Statistics. Specialisations are possible in the following focus areas: Applied Analysis, Applied Statistics, Discrete Mathematics. The in-depth specialisation is based on a prior common mathematical foundation across all three areas. One of the crucial elements of the practical orientation is a compulsory internship lasting several weeks, which is designed to test and apply acquired knowledge in industry or academia.

Our department has a somewhat more favorable teacher-student ratio than other Austrian psychology departments. This manifests itself in a focus on research- and practice-oriented teaching and learning. Courses in research methodology and statistics as well as in applied fields such as clinical psychology or psychological assessment emphasize not only knowledge acquisition, but also hands-on skills training. Our goal is to provide our students with in-depth knowledge, but also with the skills required to apply this knowledge in practical work and critical (self-)reflection.

Our main fields of research are in clinical psychology and psychotherapy, with a focus on psychoanalytic and psychodynamic conceptions, life-span developmental psychology, social psychology, and health psychology. We use a broad spectrum of qualitative, quantitative, and mixed methods. Our publication strategies are internationally oriented.
