15 Years of GESTU: Speech-to-Text Interpreting in Higher Education
Higher education should be accessible to all without barriers. For 15 years, the GESTU service (GESTU Vienna, Linz, Graz) has been a vital institution enabling deaf and hard-of-hearing students to study successfully at Austrian universities and universities of applied sciences.
Sprachpilot is proud to partner with GESTU to provide certified speech-to-text interpreting in lecture halls and digital learning spaces. With real-time captioning, spoken lectures, seminar discussions, and questions are displayed word-for-word on laptops or tablets in real-time, allowing students to follow complex academic discourse without missing a beat.
What GESTU and Speech-to-Text Interpreting Provide:
Live Lecture Captions: Instant verbatim transcription of spoken lectures and lab courses directly to the student's screen.
Exam & Seminar Support: Ensuring barrier-free participation during interactive presentations, defenses, and oral exams.
Full Equal Opportunity: Complete independence for students throughout their Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD studies.
We congratulate GESTU on 15 years of groundbreaking work and look forward to continuing our partnership for accessible higher education across Austria!
