Kunstuniversität Graz

With more than 2200 students in Graz and Oberschützen, Kunstuniversität Graz is an internationally renowned place of education. With seventeen institutes, two doctoral schools and a center for gender studies it offers highly qualified training as well as research and development and exploration of the arts. The university located in the heart of Europe combines Austrian tradition in music and the performing arts all the while positioning itself in a uniquely contemporary direction. At the center of the work of all of our staff at KUG are the students. The university connects seemingly opposing elements and perspectives, forming a basic principle of “interplay” that determines and defines the profile of the entire university. This includes: university AND society, art AND science, teaching AND research, with development and exploration of the arts, practice AND reflection, tradition AND modernity, local AND international.
