    Some rooms at TU Graz are equipped with a Cisco Webex video conferencing system. The video conferencing system (VCS) allows you to have some of the students participate in the course from another room at TU Graz (e.g. lecture hall) or from home. However, the system can also be used as a whiteboard or to share your screen in face-to-face classes without a videoconference.
