Study programme choices and lots of questions

01/20/2017 | TU Graz news | Studies

By Ute Wiedner

General school qualification for university entrance and then…? Innumerable training and educational paths await you. 7 students from TU Graz reveal why they would choose their study programmes again.

What should i study? Thomas Neff, Alexander Winkler, Lea Kapetanovic, Alexander Draschl, Teresa Jagiello, Sascha Rossmann, Julia Angleitner (from left to right) found their answers at Graz University of Technology
We’ve just had the school leavers’ ball, now we’re in the home straight for school graduation. After this, for many there is great uncertainty. So much advice, so many possibilities, so many questions. We asked seven students doing their bachelor’s and master’s programmes at TU Graz what they liked about their studies. And we’ve also compiled some TU Graz orientation suggestions from information events, interviews with students and useful links. Maybe they can help you with your own decisions.

I’m studying at Graz University of Technology because… – the answers
