Quality Education
Our work and activity in relation to 'Quality Education', one of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals.
Our Curriculum Design Principles a core set of values and design elements that underpin all programme development and review at the University of Dundee. The include a set of graduate attributes that our graduates should have gained from their University of Dundee education. One of these is “Environmentally aware and sustainability-led”.
Working with DUSA (Dundee University Students Association) who made the original proposal we have developed a Climate Action and Sustainability module that all students can take before they matriculate (register).
In addition we offer courses at both undergraduate and taught postgraduate in different aspects of Sustainability.
