NTU recognised as one of the greenest universities in the UK

NTU has once again been recognised as one of the most sustainable universities in the UK by the highly regarded People & Planet University League.

    NTU has retained its position of 3rd out of more than 154 institutions in the People & Planet University League

    NTU has retained it position of 3rd out of more than 154 institutions in the 2021 table - the UK's only comprehensive and independent league table of universities ranked by environmental and ethical performance. People & Planet comprehensively analyses a range of different subject areas including energy, water, food, education and ethical investment.

    A culture of sustainable development has been created across the University through a variety of initiatives. These include the Green Rewards colleague and student engagement platform, sustainable dining in our campus catering outlets from sourcing through to serving, a bike hire scheme and a new Net Zero Carbon strategy.

    Charmaine Morell, Head of Sustainability at Nottingham Trent University said:

    “NTU is one of the most sustainable universities in the UK and this ranking yet again demonstrates the commitment of not only our leadership, but our colleagues and our students, to achieving our core ‘Embracing Sustainability’ strategy.”

    Colleagues and students can join our sustainability journey through the Green Rewards app and earn points for taking sustainable actions.

    NTU will be publishing its annual Sustainability Report in February 2022.
