EcoCampus Project

EcoCampus is a national Environmental Management System (EMS) and award scheme for the higher education sector, which is closely aligned to ISO14001 the international environmental management system (EMS)standard. The scheme provides universities with the tools necessary to assist them in moving towards environmental sustainability and therefore good operational and risk management practices.

The scheme is broken down into four phases. As the University meets the criteria of each stage an award ranging from Bronze to Platinum will be achieved.
