A city councillor is responsible for education, youth, information and sports in any case. The city senate is legally and politically accountable to the Vienna Provincial Parliament (legislation and monitoring). Responsible for educational and scientific matters is the administrative group "Education and Research".

University of Art and Design Linz

=Universität für Künstlerische und Industrielle Gestaltung (Linz) GND

Mail contact / Website

Address: Hauptplatz 8, 4010 Linz, Tel: +43-732-7898-0

Type: University

With its curricula and thematic profile, Kunstuniversität Linz occupies a somewhat special position at least in the German-speaking region, but also beyond. The reason lies in the fact that its curricula and profile are largely situated at the interfaces between freelance art and applied design as well as between artistic creation and scientific research. This fundamental concept revolves around three central pillars: intermediality, spatial strategies and artistic-scientific research. “Intermediality” takes equal account of the historic breakout success of digital media and of their links with the full range of media-related communication and design disciplines. “Spatial strategies” signals that the traditional boundaries between architecture, design, social issues, etc. have become obsolete and that cross-disciplinary competencies are increasingly sought after. Finally, “artistic-scientific research” is without doubt among the most exciting future-oriented fields for any university. The recent affiliation of the Vienna-based International Research Center for Cultural Studies (IFK) with Kunstuniversität Linz has opened up entirely novel perspectives towards this goal. Moreover, the abovementioned special position is justified by other unique aspects, such as a strong focus on contemporary and future artistic/design disciplines, close relations with cultural and art institutions as well as with economic and industrial circles, the nexus between artistic and applied creativity underpinned by numerous projects or a clearly stated commitment to artistic and scientific mediation. Compact and differentiated; equally in tune with the surrounding region and international networks; efficient, creative, yet easygoing and informal, this is an atmosphere worthwhile exploring.

The Johannes Kepler University (JKU) in Linz was founded in 1966 as an Academy for Social and Economic Sciences. Teaching and research activities initially began with a faculty focused on academic studies in the the fields of social sciences, economics and legal studies, serving a student body of approximately 600. The Faculty of Technical and Natural Sciences was introduced in 1969, followed by the Faculty of Law in 1975. In the same year, the Academy transitioned to become the Johannes Kepler University (JKU), named after the world-famous and renowned mathematician and astronomer Johannes Kepler. The campus accommodates approximately 18,000 students and employs over 2,500 faculty and staff. The JKU currently offers 59 Bachelors, Masters and Doctorate academic degree programs at 118 institutes. Cooperation efforts with over 250 partner universities in 50 countries around the world underscore the university's high standards as a future-oriented and international institution of higher learning. From the start, the JKU depicted a new style of university offering interdisciplinary combinations between the fields of economics, social science, law, natural science and engineering, as well as a concentrated focus on its obligations to the community and economy. Today, the JKU not only provides expertise in basic research, but is also the province’s largest institution of application-oriented research. Subsequently, in addition to traditional institutes, the university has seen an increasing number of institutes funded by third parties and, more recently, the introduction of competence centers which are privately owned companies and other organizations that reflect the important role JKU plays within the economy of Upper Austria. These include: the Research Institute of Symbolic Computation (RISC), the Software Competence Center Hagenberg, the Institute of Application-oriented Knowledge Processing (Anwendungsorientierte Wissensverarbeitung (FAW)), Numerical and Symbolic Scientific Computing. In addition to the SCCH Hagenberg, the competence centers include the ACCM (Austrian Competence Center in Mechtronics) and the Competence Center in Wood. These university institutes cooperate with large companies as well as small and medium-sized companies that specialize in these particular fields. In 2014 started a new degree program in human medicine in cooperation with the Medical University of Graz.

wba (short for Weiterbildungsakademie Österreich/Austrian Academy of Continuing Education) is a validation system for the qualification and recognition of adult educators. Adult educators`qualifications are recognised on set standard which are based on a curriculum. Launched in 2007 wba acknowledges prior learning results and offers guidance as far as the acquisition of missing skills is concerned. Adult educators can submit competences and practical experience acquired in various ways and with different types of proofs. These supporting documents are assessed on the basis of the wba-curriculum and then acknowledged. Lack of competences can be made up by attending further courses or by submitting further evidence. wba-graduates receive a recognised wba-certificate or wba-diploma. Whilst adult education in Austria is still a heterogeneous field and difficult to compare, wba sets standards and fosters the professionalization of the Austrian adult education. wba does not offer further education programmes itself but accredits suitable further education programmes offered by various adult education institutes throughout Austria. Practical experience in the field of adult education is a prerequisite for a certification by wba.

Type: Public Agency

As the supreme authority of religious affairs, the Office of Religious Affairs is responsible for implementing state regulations concerning religions. These include, in particular, decisions on applications to register religious denominations and the recognition of churches and religious communities, to the effect that these then possess the status of a public body. These decisions are made while preserving the fundamental religious/ideological neutrality of the state (rejecting the system of a legally preferred "state church").

The Office of Religious Affairs plays an informative and advisory role when other ministries, governments of the lander, courts, authorities and governmental offices come into contact with religious communities when implementing their regulations or when religious/ideological concerns of citizens are involved.

These activities are of particular importance in the system of cooperation that prevails in Austria (e.g. compulsory religious education in state schools) between the state, churches and religious communities, which exists alongside all due organizational separation and fundamental neutrality of the state.

At the beginning of 2000, the former Austrian Central Statistical Office was separated from Government Services by a new Federal Statistics Act. It is now an independent and non-profit-making federal institution under public law and is called Statistics Austria (STAT). It is responsible for performing scientific services in the area of federal statistics. The Federal Statistics Act of 2000 defines federal statistics as a (non-personal) information system of the government providing data on the economic, demographic, social, ecological and cultural situation in Austria. This information helps administrative bodies in planning and political decision-making procedures and in controlling the measures they have taken. Moreover, data are made available to the scientific and economic community and to the general public. Federal statistics comprises the compilation of statistics of all kinds as well as analyses, prognoses and statistical models which reach beyond the interests of an individual Austrian province. The statistics are decreed by international legal acts of the European Community, by federal laws and by regulations. In the performance of its duties, Statistics Austria must observe a number of principles in the interest of its clients, other users and respondents. The most important of these are:

  • to maintain objectivity and impartiality in the compilation of statistics;
  • to apply statistical methods and procedures according to internationally accepted scientific principles and standards and to disclose them;
  • to continuously control quality improvements;
  • to maintain a high degree of topicality;
  • to publish statistics and their underlying concepts, definitions and explanations immediately; main results will be available via the Internet free of charge from 2002 onward;
  • to endeavour to keep the costs to relevant persons and business enterprises as low as possible and to supply the providers of statistical data with sufficient information;
  • to keep personal data confidential.

Access to the compiled data should be possible not only for administrative purposes but also to the scientific and economic community, to the public and to individual citizens. To enable this access, Statistics Austria provides information and expert services, in particular statistical analyses, as well as statistical data free of charge or at a reasonable cost.
