From 1986 to 1989, she was the driving force (together with János Maróthy) behind the creation of the first studio for computer music in Hungary. The studio was dedicated to creation, research and pedagogy. After 1990, its equipment was moved over to the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest.[2]

Márta Grabócz is currently a member of the External Advisory Board of the Human Sciences Research Institute (BTK) at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences[3] and a member of the Semiotics Working Group at that same Academy (since 2019).

In 1985, she obtained her PhD at Paris I University. Her doctoral thesis (domain: “Esthetics and Arts”) under the direction of Michel Guiomar, dealt with the influence of narrative programs on musical forms: "Influence du programme sur l’évolution des formes instrumentales. Morphologie des œuvres pour piano de F. Liszt".

In 1991, she was appointed at Marc Bloch University, and in 1995 became professor at that same university. In parallel, she taught a course on the semiotics of music at University of Paris 8 Vincennes-Saint-Denis (1992-1995). In 1997, she created "Jeune équipe - Méthodes nouvelles en musicologie" (JE 2114) at Strasbourg University, a group she supervised until 2001. She also directed the Approches contemporaines de la création et de la réflexion artistiques (ACCRA, EA 3402) research group from 2002 until 2010.[4]

In 1993, she completed her post-doctoral studies at Panthéon-Sorbonne University and was awarded her habilitation degree. (She was Research Associate at IDEAT, a joint research center CNRS-université Panthéon-Sorbonne from 2000 to 2009).[5]

She has been in member of the Labex GREAM (now: ITI CREAA), University of Strasbourg and responsible of research programs on semiotics and narratology: ‘Signification, sémiotique et narratologie musicales’ at Strasbourg University since 2011. (Presently: that of axis on ‘Memory and invariables’).[6]

She is a contributing author to the Encyclopædia Universalis, writing the entry on Franz Liszt.[citation needed]

She has been member of the French Academic Institute (IUF) between 2009-2014 and between 2015–2020 (holding an accentuated research position).

She is also editor of the Music Studies Collection at Éditions des Archives Contemporaines (Paris, London).[7]
