The University of Bayreuth participates in the nationwide network "HochN - Sustainability at Universities" for further networking with researchers at other locations.

As an example, three projects approved in 2022 are listed here for the different sustainability areas, as well as other examples from the campus:

• ERC PoC Grant "CoolChips" under the direction of Prof. Dr. Markus Retsch (Chair of Physical Chemistry I)
