About ERS at CUBS ucc

CUBS are building on UCC’s reputation as a global leader, being the first University in the world to be awarded a Green Flag from the Foundation for Environmental Education and is the first university to achieve the milestone of five Green Flag awards. UCC has placed fourth in the UI Green Metric World University Rankings 2024, an international ranking of third-level institutions from around the globe. As a university we aim to achieve significant targets including becoming a zero-waste campus by 2030 and a carbon neutral campus by 2040.

PRME is a key initiative for CUBS in furthering our ambition of embedding the principles of responsible leadership and sustainability increasingly at the heart of all that we do in our research, programmes and operations. The PRME Champions represent a group of dedicated business and management schools from across the PRME community that are committed to working collaboratively to develop and promote activities that address shared barriers for the PRME community, and which deliver value for business and society at large.
