Trent University is one of Canada’s top three environmental universities and number one in Canada for sustainability education and research according to the 2021 UI GreenMetric World University Rankings.
The ranking is based on performance across six categories: education and research, setting and infrastructure, energy and climate change, waste, water, and transportation.
President and vice-chancellor Dr. Leo Groarke says Trent prides itself on its commitment to positive outcomes for the natural environment, and is committed to the GreenMetric rankings because they are a way to judge what is working.
