Our activities will be at the forefront of advancements in addressing sustainability issues, and we will embed research and knowledge around sustainable development and social responsibility into our courses.
Institutional sustainability
We will be managed by good governance principles underpinned by sound risk management and processes, strategic investment and strong stakeholder relationships.
