Institute
At the Institute of Environmental Planning, the comprehensive protection of nature and the environment is a core topic. This includes the coordination and moderation of different land-use demands, while pursuing sustainable development.
Questions that we answer in research and teaching include:
- How does a river landscape become "wild" again?
- How can we combine coastal protection and nature conservation?
- What kind of wild plants and animals live in biomass crops?
- How can a nature-compatible energy supply from 100 % renewable energies succeed?
- How can planning processes become more effective through modern communication technology?
- Where are our villages heading?
- What is actually a ‚nice landscape‘?
On the following pages we provide information about our teaching and research areas and you can get to know our facilities and employees.
