Timo Bühler

Welcome to my digital home. . .

Currently I’m the Coordinator of the 'Environment and Climate Research Hub' at the University of Vienna. Since 2018 I'm also a lecturer for different topics at the Cooperative State University of Baden-Württemberg in Stuttgart and the Technical University in Vienna.

In 2021 I finished my Master's degree in Science-Technology-Society and subsequently worked as a researcher in the ICU4Covid project at the Department of Science and Technology Studies at the University of Vienna. Before all these things I finished my Bachelor degree in Business Information Management and worked four years at IBM in different job positions and countries.

I’m especially interested in the intersection of science, technology and society as well as in the topics environment, climate, education and algorithmic decision making.

What I Do

Science Communication

I'm interested in how to communicate science best to and with society.

Teaching

I'm teaching classes on the relation of (information) technologies and society. Thereby I especially work with students in the area of computer science and informatics.

Engagement

As a political person I do engage in different projects and try to bring my expertise, especially with IT to the table to create a better world.

Writing

In my leisure I enjoy working on different book projects. I'm sure that one day you'll be able to read through them for yourself.
