UI GREEN METRIC WORLD UNIVERSITY RANKINGS

INTRODUCTION

Universities Indonesia (UI) initiated world university rankings in 2010, later known as UI Green Metric World University Rankings, to measure campus sustainability efforts. It was intended to create an online survey to portray sustainability policies programs for universities around the world The rankings aim to:

Contribute to academic discourses on sustainability in education and the greening of campus
Promote university-led social change with regard to sustainability goals
Be a tool for self-assessment on campus sustainability for higher education institutions (HEIs) around the globe
QS then chose to continue using the pre-existing methodology, while THE adopted a new methodology to create their rankings.

All universities in the world with a strong commitment to sustainability issues can participate in the annual UI Green Metric World University Rankings.

To participate in the ranking is simple. The sustainability director or other persons in charge can visit www.greenmetric.ui.ac.id to learn about the ranking and if interested they can e-mail the UI GreenMetric secretariat ([email protected]) to get an invitation letter and access to the system. If you have already participated in the rankings, you will be sent an invitation to participate.
