Our University Vision and Strategy includes a focus on equipping graduates to stand out as confident global citizens, able to make meaningful contributions to society. Our Sustainability Strategy influences and shapes research, teaching, and campus management activity to enhance the sustainability of everything we do. We are working hard to embed Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) within all of our taught degree courses and, as a leading research institution, we are contributing to the challenge of tackling climate change and other sustainable development goals at a broader level. 

We provide impartial and unbiased careers guidance, equipping students and graduates to make their own free and informed choices about future career pathways, and to consider what impact they wish to make on the world around them through their work.

Our students and graduates are passionate about careers which contribute to more sustainable futures for all. They can help to accelerate change and contribute to more sustainable and inclusive practice and behaviour, and it is these students and graduates that we want to help you to recruit. Integrating sustainability into your business practices is therefore vital to attract and engage the next generation of talent.
