We operate within a University Sustainability Framework, which helps educate our students about long-term, cultural, economic and environmental health and vitality, together with the importance of linking social, financial, and environmental well being.
We aim to:
- Develop and enhance our Estate by identifying opportunities to reduce our carbon footprint and optimise our building systems, fabric and infrastructure to be more energy efficient
- Foster inquiry into sustainability through teaching, learning and research
- Embed sustainability within the curriculum (environmental– societal, economic)
- Ensure our graduates are sustainability literate, equipped with the skills, knowledge and understanding to live and work in a complex and changing world
- Ensure all staff and students are aware of their individual and collective responsibilities regarding sustainable practice
- Actively encourage and support student engagement throughout all sustainability developments in the University
- Share knowledge across all areas of University activity to raise awareness of and ensure effective participation in sustainability practices
Our Sustainability Committee plans, supports and monitors the University’s sustainability activity and how it adheres to the University’s Sustainability Framework.
