SZ interview with Vice President for Sustainable Transformation Prof. Werner Lang

Students as pioneers of sustainability

Sustainability is one of the most important topics at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) - and one that affects almost all areas of research, teaching and operations. Since 2022, there has been the TUM Sustainable Futures Strategy 2030 and, since this year, the office of Vice President for Sustainable Transformation. Prof. Werner Lang, holder of the Chair for Energy Efficient and Sustainable Planning and Building, has taken on this role.
