⛳️ Last week, our international staff stepped out of the office and onto the golf course in the south of Graz! 🌿🏌️‍♀️🏌️‍♂️

From learning the basics of putting and chipping to taking our best shots at the driving range, we had a fantastic time trying something new together 😄👏

Who knows… maybe we’ve just witnessed the very first swings of some future golf pros among us? 🏆⛳️✨

Interested in a student exchange in India? 🇮🇳✨ TU Graz 🎓 has launched new mobility partnerships with two top institutions — the Indian Institute of Science (IISc) in Bengaluru and the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay). A TU Graz delegation, including our Rector, has already visited both campuses 🏫. Sabine and Claudia from the International Office - Welcome Center took a close look on site 👀 and brought back fantastic insights for our students 💡:

Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IIT Bombay), Mumbai 🌆🌊
👉 A leading engineering and technology university with a top reputation in computer science, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and beyond.
👉 Powai campus set among lakes and hills - a vibrant student community with strong entrepreneurial spirit.
👉 Deep industry connections across Mumbai, with project-based and practice-oriented teaching.

Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru 🌿🏙️
👉 One of India’s most renowned research universities, known for excellence in science, engineering and interdisciplinary fields.
👉 A spacious, green campus in India’s tech hub, Bengaluru — with strong links to innovation, start-ups and industry.
👉 Hands-on research focus, modern laboratories and close supervision in research-led formats.

Why this is exciting for TU Graz students 🎓✨
👉 Academic excellence and demanding coursework that will stretch and inspire you.
👉 Dynamic campus and city life - from Bengaluru’s “Silicon Valley of India” vibe to the energy of megacity Mumbai
👉 Dive into everyday Indian culture: Bustling street markets, Hindu temples, festivals like Diwali (lights, sweets, fireworks), Holi (colour-throwing fun), or Pongal harvest celebrations (rice feasts, cattle honouring) – plus yoga spots for a lively mix of religion, food, and community.

Applications for an exchange at IISc Bangalore or IIT Bombay via the Overseas Programme are possible until 10 June. 📅

Hi, everyone!
I have received some questions regarding the cost of living in Hong Kong. 🇭🇰
There is no specific answer to this question because it really depends on your lifestyle but I tried to break down some of the things that everyone pays for.

Food is generally more affordable than in Austria. I’d prefer to eat in the canteen on campus. The meals are tasty and cost between 3-6€. However the dairy products are way more expensive compared to Austria.

Regarding the transportation we got a student card, which gives us about 50% off fares. It is so convenient.

Going out for a coffee or to a bar is as expensive as in Austria.

As an architecture student I have to pay also for stationary and printing. This is also similar to Austria.

If you have any questions please let me know and feel free to reach out via DM

See you soon!

Hi, everyone! I am back with a short video capturing my daily life as an exchange student in Hong Kong.

I am an architecture student and this semester I take 4 courses at CUHK- Design Studio, Language class and two elective courses.

During my first month here my guest university organised many events introducing the Cantonese culture and language. Additionally we had many opportunities to meet new people- locals and exchange students.

I hope this type of content will be useful and inspiring. If you have any questions feel free to DM me ->

See you next time!

Bom dia! 🇵🇹

This is Elena, your study abroad peer from Lisbon. Today I want to show you a different part of Portugal that you’ve probably heard of before - Madeira 🌿🌊⛰️

From sunrise hikes above the clouds to cliffside views, ocean swims, and nights spent laughing until way too late, this trip became a memory I know I’ll carry long after Erasmus ends.

Madeira had some of the most beautiful landscapes I’ve ever seen, but what made it even more special was experiencing it with the friends I met on my very first day at university! 🫂

Until next time or até breve, Elena!

Hello and welcome back from Seoul, South Korea! 🇰🇷

This time I’m sharing a little insight into Korean street food culture — something I’ve really started to appreciate during my time here. Seoul offers countless street food markets, with Gwangjang Market and Namdaemun Market being two of my personal favorites.

At first, some of the dishes were definitely spicier than I was used to, but over time I’ve adapted to the local spice level and now genuinely enjoy almost everything the markets have to offer (and yes also the Kimchi) :)

The markets can get a little busy on weekends, but especially during the week I enjoy coming here, trying different dishes and exploring the variety of food stalls. I’m pretty sure there’s something for everyone, so swipe right to see a few of my personal favorites. 🥟🥬🥕🍚🥞

What do you think would be your favorite? Let me know in the comments!

PRO TIP: Street food is best experienced with friends or family (as in my case this week) because sharing dishes allows you to try a lot more without getting full too quickly hihi!

Happy Mother’s Day and all the best,
Jana
