A systematic environmental management system has become indispensable to university operations as a way to sufficiently take environmental factors into account. The environmental management system provides a targeted impetus for regularly reviewing environmental protection efforts at TU Dresden as well as for submitting and implementing proposals for change and improvement.

Mobility
Mobility is one of the major sources of emissions at TU Dresden. These arise partly from employees and students commuting to campus. They are also the result of business trips – especially air travel – which produce high greenhouse gas emissions. You can find extensive information on and services relating to mobility at TU Dresden in the mobility portal. Mobility portal
