‘Truly autonomous systems won't be around any time soon’
Gerald Steinbauer-Wagner has been researching robots for almost 25 years and they are now able to solve complicated tasks. However, they are not autonomous, says the researcher, as they are still unable to actually understand their environment. Read more

Early Christian Altar Stone: Swarm Intelligence to Help with Reconstruction
Researchers from TU Graz and the University of Graz have digitised a broken altar stone from Lavant so that citizens can put it together on the internet. The aim is to achieve what generations of archaeologists have failed to do. Read more

Novel UV Broadband Spectrometer Revolutionises Air Pollutant Analysis
The laser-based technology developed at TU Graz enables the continual real-time analysis of air pollutants and their interaction with other gases and sunlight. Read more
The great challenges of our time, such as digitalisation, sustainability or pandemics can hardly be solved by individual researchers working on their own, but require critical masses and interdisciplinary cooperation. The Fields of Expertise of TU Graz are the ideal platform for this – researchers collaborate in an interdisciplinary way and are supported by funding.
Lead Projects at TU Graz
Since 2015, TU Graz has awarded special funding for multidisciplinary lead projects. By supporting such basic research projects, outstanding areas of top research are further developed and the research profile of TU Graz is enhanced.
Current lead projects at TU Graz
- NExT - Non Exhaust Emission Topics
- DigiBioTech
- Mechanics, Modeling and Simulation of Aortic Dissection
- Porous Materials @ Work
