Abstract
From the middle of the 18th century, the status of universities in the monarchy changed significantly. They became state institutions, subject to the Court Study Commission in Vienna.
Rules were also gradually issued for the work of university offices, which became an independent part of the university. Their task was to provide administrative services for the university administration and the teachers and students within it, as well as to communicate with the higher authorities.
The forms of this communication gradually acquired firm rules. This paper shows, by means of two examples from around the mid-19th century, the way in which decisions on university matters were made in the contest of the state.
