U-Multirank's unique 'Sunburst chart' gives an illustration of a university's performance profile across the five U-Multirank dimensions. These are indicated in different colours. For instance, the teaching and learning dimension is symbolised by the colour green. Each 'sunray' represents one of the thirty plus U-Multirank indicators. The longer the ray, the better the performance of an institution on the selected indicator: a full-length ray stands for 'top group' performance, whereas a short ray means 'weak' performance. A missing sunray indicates that the specific data indicator is not available. An institution's performance in an indicator can be identified by moving the cursor over the rays. A key guard for the sunburst chart is provided here .

The study programmes at the department provide a multidisciplinary training in theoretical background as well as practical implementations of modern technologies for molecular and cellular biology as well as ecological and biodiversity research. Teaching involves the use of technological infrastructure and expertise necessary for internationally competitive biological research. The programme’s special focus areas include biomedical research training in mechanisms of human health and disease, structure-function analysis of biomolecules and ecology and evolution.

At the early undergraduate level, students enrol in mandatory courses covering fundamental areas in biology ranging from molecular biology, physiology, and biochemistry to organismic biology, ecology and evolution. The different topics are generally covered by theoretical lectures along with practical courses. At the more advanced level, students may combine elective modules to specialize either in molecular and cellular biology or ecology and evolution. Graduates may find entry-level or research assistant jobs in the respective fields.

The study program is guided by an integrative, experimental, and interdisciplinary view and provides strong research-guided education. Graduates accomplish a deep understanding on the units, structures, functions and natural versus human-driven dynamics of the genetic, species and ecosystem level of biodiversity. Theoretical training and some courses on ecology and evolution of animals and plants are mandatory, while a deeper insight into molecular, experimental and applied topics are achieved in elective hands-on field & lab courses, excursions and research labs.

In this study program the Universities of Salzburg and Linz are collaborating to cover important aspects of molecular mechanisms relevant for the function or dysfunction of cells, tissues, or organisms in biological processes such as diseases, immune responses, evolution, cancer, or aging. Such studies are supported by a very solid basics in (bio)chemistry, (bio)physics, mathematics, statistics, microbiology, genetics, and physiology. At the advanced stage, courses are offered in immunology, structural biology, cell structures and systems biology.

This study program is designed to concentrate on special areas of molecular biology, such as biophysics and structural biology, biotechnology and bioanalytics, molecular cell biology, aging research, molecular medicine, tumor biology, and immunology, drug development, or molecular genetics. Ample time is reserved for practical lab courses introducing most of the theoretical and practical skills required for a scientific research project conducted during the master thesis. Collaborations with university clinics and with the medical or pharmaceutical industry are supported.

The main goal of the department in teaching and learning is to provide a deep understanding of the formal background as well as in software-related topics. We often teach in small groups and offer courses at bachelor and masters level, which are lying in the research areas of the members of the department. Furthermore, we think that the education of future CS teachers is indispensable for a prosperous development of our modern society.

The department of mathematics in Salzburg offers a bachelor and master program in mathematics and a master program in data science. The math program follows international standards and provides ample possibilities for specialization. The data science program has an interdisciplinary emphasize and focuses especially on statistics. A special training program for actuarial studies and a supplementary program in applied statistics and data analysis are provided by us. Moreover we offer also a teacher training program as well as a doctoral program.

The research at the department of mathematics in Salzburg is focused on the following areas: analysis (with emphasize on PDEs), discrete mathematics (with emphasize on algebra and number theory), probability theory and statistics (with emphasize on copula theory, non-parametric and multivariate statistics), applied mathematics (with emphasize on FEM-methods for differential equations), geometry (with emphasize on convex and distance geometry). This provides a good mixture of areas in which fundamental research is done and areas with a lot of interaction with other sciences.

The Master's program in Data Science centers around effective, smart, and responsible use of data for the gain of knowledge. The competencies are highly relevant for enterprises, governments, and other entities. Obtaining, modelling, analyzing, and interpreting data are at the core of today’s science. The curriculum builds on mathematics/statistics and computer science, but has a high degree of interdisciplinarity, involving ethics/philosophy, social science, and application areas from, e.g., bioinformatics to economics, law, digital communication, and geoinformatics.
