It is not only one of Austria's most beautiful campuses, but also one of the busiest. Currently, the Graz Center of Physics and the House of Educational Sciences - the building at Universitätsplatz 4 is undergoing a general renovation - are being built on the University of Graz campus. While work continues there, the start of the winter semester will see new developments elsewhere.

Bicycle has opened in the RESOWI center

Bicycle has opened a branch in the basement of Building A - the entrance is located between the e-charging stations in the parking lot. Bicycles can now be brought in for repair or service on Mondays and Tuesdays between 9 am and 3 pm. Simply drop in during opening hours. The workshop can be reached by telephone on +43 316 380 5904.
For easier access, cyclists are now allowed to use the garage exit in the direction of Heinrichstraße against the one-way traffic.

Learning in the countryside

At Heinrichstraße 31, shady trees and lush lawns invite you to take a breather or enjoy a quiet study session. There is not only Wi-Fi, but recently also more seating.
