Climate Protection at Rosenheim Technical University of Applied Sciences

Climate neutrality by 2040: Rosenheim Technical University of Applied Sciences’ climate protection concept forms the strategic basis for all the university’s climate-related activities. It pursues a clear objective: to sustainably embed climate protection as an integral cross-cutting priority in teaching, research, administration and infrastructure.

The integrated concept was developed between December 2020 and December 2022 – with the involvement of students, staff and external experts. It paves the way for a climate-friendly future for TH Rosenheim.

National Climate Protection Initiative (NKI)

Through the National Climate Protection Initiative, the German Federal Government has been initiating and funding numerous projects since 2008 that contribute to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Its programmes and projects cover a broad spectrum of climate protection activities: from the development of long-term strategies to practical support and investment-based funding measures. This diversity ensures a wealth of good ideas. The National Climate Protection Initiative helps to embed climate protection at a local level. It benefits consumers as well as businesses, local authorities and educational institutions.
