About this programme
Master in European Green Transformation is a master’s programme at FH JOANNEUM University of Applied Sciences in Graz, taught in English. It runs for 2 years (4 semesters) and carries 120 ECTS credits. The register gives Graz, Kapfenberg as the campus town. It lists the academic degree as Master of Science in Engineering (MSc). FH JOANNEUM University of Applied Sciences is a university of applied sciences in Styria.
What you will study
FH JOANNEUM runs this Master's in European Green Transformation as a part-time, mostly online programme with two weeks on campus each semester. It is taught in English and leads to a Master of Science in Engineering (MSc) after 120 ECTS over four semesters. The two campus locations are Graz and Kapfenberg.
What you study
The programme combines management, green technology and leadership subjects. That mix is the point: you learn the technical side of sustainability and the business side in the same place, so you can act on both.
The teaching draws on the European Green Deal and the Sustainable Development Goals, with a focus on a circular and regenerative economy. The idea is that you take these models and put them into practice in a business context, rather than just reading about them.
Two institutes share the programme: Energy, Transport and Environmental Management, and International Management and Entrepreneurship. The department behind it is Building, Environment and Society.
How the programme is organised
It is part-time and built for people who keep working. Most lectures happen in blended learning and online sessions. You come to campus for a two-week block per semester, and that is the only fixed presence requirement.
Because so much runs online, students from outside the EU only need a tourist visa to join the on-campus sessions. That is worth checking against your own situation before you apply.
Who it suits
Professionals and businesses facing a fast-changing environment, in the programme's own words. If you want to bring sustainability goals into your organisation and need both the technical and the business vocabulary, this fits. It also suits people who cannot pause their career for a full-time degree.
Admission, language and next steps

What the register says
This master's programme offers targeted input for managers who need to improve their technical skills, but also for engineers who lack a background in business administration. The overarching theme of the UN's 2030 Agenda, with its sustainable development goals and principles of green transformation, is equally important for managers and engineers. The Master's programme focuses on the core areas of green technology, management and law, and transformational leadership.
