STEM2020 - Embedding sustainability into the curriculum: The passion, practicalities and problems

Embedding sustainability into the curriculum is not an easy target. Nor is futureproofing our graduates for a world where understanding and applying SDGs is essential. This session reflects on our journey (the practicalities and problems as well as the importance of passion,) shares ideas and aims to inspire change by offering a mechanism to achieve it. We have created an accredited course (the first of its kind in the UK) to support and guide staff to embed sustainability in the curriculum. Through this approach we hope to achieve bigger, more meaningful impacts across all disciplines over a shorter time frame.
