NTU is one of the most sustainable universities in the world, enabling a culture of sustainable development across NTU, enhancing the student experience and creating a global legacy.
We are proud of our world-class campuses complete with green spaces, sustainable buildings and transport infrastructure. The United Nation’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) influence University strategy and this is reflected in a wide variety of projects. Find out more here
The Sustainable Development Team and Green Academy work in partnership with other departments to continue to embed sustainability into everyday life at NTU.
