The demand for experts in the fields of corporate environmental management, mobility planning and energy management is increasing every year. Our graduates are in high demand in the professional world: for example, they work in industrial companies such as voestalpine or AT&S, in the energy industry (e.g. Energie Steiermark, Salzburg AG, Verbund), in the mobility sector (e.g. ASFINAG, ÖBB, Holding Graz), in federal ministries, in city and municipal administrations, planning offices and in industrial research and development.
The postgraduate programme
In order to be able to take on management functions in international companies in the future, further specialisation is recommended as part of an extra-occupational and career-enhancing Master’s degree course. The English-language Master’s degree programmes ‘Energy Technologies’, ‘Mobility Technologies’ and ‘European Green Transformation’ offer the opportunity for further specialisation and the flexibility to enter professional life at the same time.
