The University of Graz, founded in 1585, is Austria's second oldest university and one of the largest in the country. Numerous outstanding scientists, including six Nobel Prize winners, have taught and researched here.
With 30,000 students and 4,700 employees, it makes a decisive contribution to the vibrant life of the Styrian capital. Its geographical location favours a lively scientific, economic and cultural exchange with south-eastern Europe, from which the city benefits just as much as its educational institutions.
