Moritz Allé studied mathematics at the University of Vienna . From 1856 to 1859 he was an assistant at the Vienna observatory . In 1860 he received his doctorate with a dissertation entitled De methodis variis perturbationes speciales dictas computandi in Kiel as Dr. phil. , then he worked as an assistant ( adjunct ) at the Prague and Cracow observatories.

In 1867 he was appointed professor of mathematics at the then Joanneum in Graz , from 1866 to 1872 he was there at the chair for higher mathematics and from 1872 to 1882 at the chair for mathematics II. From October 1, 1875 to September 30, 1876 he rector of the Graz University of Technology . In Graz, the physicist and electrical engineer Nikola Tesla was one of his students.
