Sustainable Buildings

We are committed to creating sustainable buildings at the University. Our goal is to endeavour to introduce sustainable factors into all new buildings and refurbishments, and to aim for the highest environmental standards that we can whilst achieving our academic priorities. 

To meet this objective the University will incorporate sustainable standards including, but not limited to the Building Research Establishments Environmental Assessment Method (BREEAM) and the WELL Building Standard when undertaking new building and refurbishment projects.
