Survey on mobility behavior

An FAU-wide survey on mobility behavior will run until 22.12.2023. The Green Office would like to know: What means of transportation do you use to get to FAU and between FAU locations? How long does it take you to get there? What is going well and what should be improved?

You can find the link to the survey in an email from the Green Office dated December 5. The 10-minute survey is, of course, voluntary and anonymous. No conclusions will be drawn about individual persons at any time.

The more people who take part in the survey, the more meaningful the results will be, which will serve as the basis for a catalog of measures for the further development of mobility services and the framework conditions at FAU. In addition, this catalog of measures is intended to make a further contribution to climate protection at FAU and for each individual. Further information can be found on the Green Office’s mobility concept website, including information on data protection.
Everyone can easily contribute to improving mobility management at FAU!
