The Interdisciplinary Environmental Research Centre is a central scientific institution of the Technische Universität Bergakademie Freiberg.

The centre acts as a forum for interdisciplinary scientific cooperation in the field of environment-related research and for interdisciplinary, environment-oriented study programs.

The Interdisciplinary Environmental Research Centre cooperates closely with the Association of Practice Partners of the Interdisciplinary Ecological Centre of the TU Bergakademie Freiberg.

.

The Interdisciplinary Environmental Research Centre has existed since 1996 and was originally created to initiate and promote scientific cooperation. In cooperation with the faculties, environmentally oriented degree programmes were to be coordinated.

The Interdisciplinary Environmental Research Centre is currently in a phase of organisational review. The university's focus on the profile field of ENVIRONMENT (UMWELT), new and diverse activities in the field of sustainability and climate protection and numerous newly created and appointed professorships with environment-related research and teaching activities are creating new fields of activity for the centre. The results of this reorganisation will be announced on this website.

In the meantime, it is worth visiting the working group websites.
