TU Graz·Mechanical Engineering and Business Economics
Diplom-Ingenieur (Dipl.-Ing.)
The Master's degree programme in Mechanical Engineering and Business Economics combines state-of-the-art engineering sciences with management expertise. It focuses on the interplay between technical knowledge and entrepreneurial skills, designing curricula that ensure graduates are well-prepared for a wide range of career opportunities in technical and management roles. The program emphasizes both theoretical knowledge and practical application through collaboration with industry and research projects.
The programme focuses on a diverse range of topics including production engineering, mechatronics, and corporate management. Students also cover applied economic principles relevant to engineering.
The programme is organized over four semesters, culminating in a master's thesis. Students specialize in both technical and economic subjects through a combination of compulsory and elective modules.
Graduates develop competencies in mechanical engineering and business economics, enabling them to address techno-economic problems and lead in various industries. They gain critical thinking, teamwork, and leadership skills.

Third-country (non-EU/EEA) applicants generally need to have their prior qualifications legalised and translated for the admission application. Exact rules depend on the country that issued each document — always confirm with the university's admissions office.
Program-specific items — a CV, letter of motivation, an entrance exam (e.g. GMAT, GRE, SAT) or a portfolio — vary by degree. Check this program's requirements above and its official page.
The level of legalisation your certificates need depends on your country of origin:
Apostille
If your country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an Apostille from the competent authority of the issuing country is sufficient.
No legalisation
A small number of countries have a bilateral agreement with Austria and need no further legalisation.
Full diplomatic legalisation
For all other countries: the full chain — pre-certification by the issuing country's authorities (e.g. Ministry of Education and Ministry of Foreign Affairs), then legalisation by the competent Austrian representation (embassy/consulate).
Translations are usually done after legalisation. Check the required order with the issuing authorities and the Austrian representation.
After admission: proof of sufficient funds, health insurance and the student residence permit are part of the visa process — not university admission. We cover those in the guides.
