FH JOANNEUM, founded in 1995, stands as one of Austria’s premier universities of applied sciences, providing a wide array of career-focused programs across multiple disciplines.The main campus is located in Graz, with additional sites in Kapfenberg and Bad Gleichenberg, accommodating approximately 5,000 students.
The university comprises six distinct departments:
1. Applied Computer Sciences: Concentrating on the integration of people and systems.
2. Engineering: Focusing on innovative mobility solutions and sustainable production methods.
3. Health Studies: Committed to enhancing public health.
4. Building, Transport and Society: Innovating future living environments.

A notable aspect of FH JOANNEUM is its Institute of Aviation, which operates under the Department of Engineering. Since its inception in 2001, it has been the sole university in Austria to encompass the entire spectrum of aviation studies, ranging from aircraft design to air traffic control and management. The institute offers both bachelor’s and master’s degree programs in Aviation, equipping students with extensive knowledge and skills in the field of aeronautics.
The Institute of Aviation is equipped with cutting-edge testing facilities, advanced simulators, and innovative design and simulation tools. These resources enable the university to engage successfully in the Design/Build/Fly competition for multiple consecutive years.
This invaluable experience in aircraft development from the ground up is a significant factor that distinguishes this university from other academic programs.
We extend our gratitude to each lecturer at the aviation institute, all staff members, and particularly the management of FH JOANNEUM, whose collaboration with joanneum Aeronautics facilitates the realization of projects like this.
