Sustainability

A world that is buckling under the weight of our demands needs people who leave the planet better than they found it. At uu77, we believe that everyone has a role to play in this. That is why we prepare our students to make a difference in their field of study, why we conduct research on pressing societal issues, why we choose to work with sustainable partners, and why we ensure that all our employees contribute to the organisation’s sustainability goals through their work. The world needs you.
