Online teaching operations were ramped up within a very short space of time. This was associated with a high level of resource utilisation at all 21 universities of applied sciences.<\/p>\n<p>\"The special measure of around EUR 2.5 million that BM Fa\u00dfmann is now implementing will help some universities of applied sciences to cushion the additional digitisation costs caused by the crisis and is welcomed by the FHK. We see this as positive, as this measure will benefit those that have seen a drop in the number of places filled compared to the winter semester. However, all universities of applied sciences are actually confronted with a crisis-related increase in the use of resources for digitalisation,\" said FHK President Raimund Ribitsch in an initial reaction to today's announcement by the Ministry of Science.<br \/>\n\"We therefore now hope that BM Fa\u00dfmann will implement the increase in funding rates for all universities of applied sciences that was already stipulated in the government programme. We need the increase of at least 10% NOW, because even before Covid-19, teaching, for which the federal government is responsible, was not fully funded,\" concludes the President.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FH-Sektor hofft nun, dass BM Fa\u00dfmann in der Bundesregierung auch sein Vorhaben der notwendigen Erh\u00f6hung der F\u00f6rders\u00e4tze umsetzen wird.
