Curriculum (in German)
Studying chemistry at TU Graz offers a wide variety of possibilities. You can either become a scientist, work as a developer for most science and/or technology based companies, be the head of its research or analytical laboratory. More importantly with chemistry, you deeply understand the connection of matter and its properties which can be seen in everyday life.
The most fascinating thing about my work/study is obtaining knowledge and skills for investigating, improving and quite possibly also inventing chemicals which can be used in our daily lives or will someday be available as commercial products. Join this amazing world of chemistry by starting your studies at TU Graz.
