Overview

With over 5000 students, 900 staff, two campuses and some 40 buildings, the University of Chichester has a considerable impact on the environment. We take these impacts seriously and believe it is vital that we become more sustainable in all our activities. We do this by looking at what we are doing, checking that we make the most effective and efficient use of valuable resources, identifying where we need to make improvements to ensure our lives on campus are greener.

What We Do
Our environmental policy identifies our vision and commitment for making the University a more sustainable place to study and work. Our Environmental and Sustainable Development Strategy (Environment strategy) was approved by our Governors in June 2010 and sets out our agenda, describing what our priorities are to 2015.

The University of Chichester has signed up to the national 10:10 campaign, pledging to reduce its carbon emissions and play its part in protecting the environment. Read more>>

Students and staff across the institute will be encouraged to take part in activities during 2010 that will help the University take big steps towards its target of a 10% carbon emission reduction. Read more>>
