Home > Programs > Europe > Exchange in Graz

About the Program

The University of Graz is located in southeastern Austria. Graz is a picturesque university town offering theatre, music, parks, forests, and access to ski areas. Bilateral exchanges provide an affordable study abroad option for students who desire complete immersion at academic institutions specifically selected to meet the needs of University of Minnesota students.

Faculty & Staff


The Office of International Relations will be your on-site staff during the time you are in Graz.

Housing & Meals


The majority of international students at Graz live in student dorms, as it is the most cost-effective option, and it is the best way to meet fellow students.

In rare cases, students choose to live in an apartment or in a homestay.
