Duration: 1 February 2019 to 31 July 2022

In the area of teaching, an endowed professorship for sustainable and future-orientated packaging will be filled. As the topic of sustainability is becoming increasingly important in the packaging sector, this is a key position in the curriculum. The project will make an essential contribution to global future issues such as the reduction of food waste, global warming and the scarcity of resources.

As the Section Packaging and Resource Management has set itself the goal of promoting research-led teaching, the endowed professorship will also be used to integrate current research findings into teaching and actively involve students in projects.

Research Goals

  • With the endowed professorship, a central, interdisciplinary person with expertise in the sustainability of packaging has been established in the study programs
  • Section Packaging and Resource Management is a recognised point of contact for questions relating to sustainable packaging
  • Courses and teaching commitments
  • Research and development
  • Students in research and development
