The sustainable project cheques enable all students and student initiatives to implement their own projects at the university.

The projects are financially supported by the Society of Friends and Sponsors of Friedrich Schiller University Jena. The Green Office acts as an interface between student commitment to sustainability and university stakeholders and resources in an advisory capacity.

The application phase for the sustainable project cheques ended on 15.12.2023. The following student projects can be supported in 2024 as part of the sustainable project cheques.
