The Field-of-Expertise Advanced Materials Science is an interdisciplinary network of researchers at the TU Graz in chemistry, physics, architecture, mechanical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering and geodesy who discover, characterize and model materials, functional coatings and components. Thirty-three institutes from six faculties are presently involved.

Advanced Materials Day is the yearly meeting where the members of the FOE present their latest results. In 2019, the meeting will be held on September 26 at the Neue Technik campus in HS H "Ulrich Santner" in the Chemistry building.
