Academic Thesises

at the Austrian Space Forum

Each year, the Austrian Space Forums hosts students for the final thesis at their respective universities – often in combination with ongoing OeWF research projects. This allows for a combination of practical work in a fascinating work setting and an outstanding academic education. Universities and Universities of Applied Sciences from a national and international environment cooperate with the forum since 2009.

Interested in doing a BSc/MSc thesis at the Austrian Space Forum? – Than contact us via our application form – the more detailed your application is, the faster we are able to provide feedback if it is possible.
