Research Successes
Smart Production Graz
In the production of the future, artificial intelligence, new materials, resource-saving production methods and, above all, well-trained personnel will be commonplace. Researchers at TU Graz are working on production-related issues, determined to discover what exactly this future may look like, what building blocks are needed, and how we can lead the way to make this vision a reality.
Center of Hydrogen Research
For the past 50 years, TU Graz has been successfully researching in the fields of electrochemistry and hydrogen. The Center of Hydrogen Research in Graz combines the expertise of more than 160 scientists who conduct hydrogen research at the institutes and research centres of TU Graz in numerous fields of specialisation.
Research Cluster Railway Systems
The Research Cluster Railway Systems is a cooperation of TU Graz with ÖBB, Siemens, voestalpine and Virtual Vehicle. With a focus on rail vehicle technology, rail infrastructure and rail operations, specialist expertise is bundled in order to increase the competitiveness of the rail system through sustainable overall system optimization; this is achieved in particular by using the technological possibilities of digital transformation.
