What our students say

“In my education at the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences I received a mix of classic theoretical content and current topics that were appropriate to my field. For me, it was this mix that also made me choose UAS Carinthia from the beginning. In the end, however, I believe that the use of the open labs gives you the opportunity to acquire practical knowledge, which is priceless. I also worked on my own projects there and acquired knowledge on how to handle measuring instruments properly and how best to put my own ideas into practice”.
