Sustainability and us

Both our universities are committed to Sustainability:

  • on our campuses - minimising energy and waste
  • in our degree programmes - ensuring all programmes take account of our future
  • in our research - both directly (energy, waste) and indirectly (study, policy)
  • in our engagement - contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals, and to local collaboration
