Sustainability in University Rankings

17th September 2013

EAUC Members, the LiFE Index and the Platform for Sustainability Performance in Education will be represented at a UNEP supported workshop in October at the University of Venice by Ca' Foscari University of Venice and Qs - World University Ranking, to promote the integration of sustainability indicators into University Rankings.

Specialised sustainability rankings exist but the EAUC believe the integration of sustainable indicators into traditional rankings will stimulate a more serious awareness of this issue and consequently the inclusion of sustainability into all universities agenda.

The Qs World University Ranking is the most widely read university comparison of their kind. As well as exploring the world's top 800 universities overall, you can also compare the ranking of universities in a specific region, by subject area, or based on factors such as reputation or research citations. The UK now boasts six of the world's top 20 universities
