Environment, climate and sustainable development
KTH offers education on sustainable development through courses and programmes. There is also support for you as a student to get involved in association life, research collaborations and startups.
Environment and sustainable development at KTH
The KTH Sustainability Office works to integrate environmental and sustainable development in education, research, and collaboration, and it is responsible for KTH's environmental management system and environmental issues surrounding the campus. The KTH Sustainability Office centrally runs the environment and sustainability work at KTH in collaboration with KTH's Management, School Management and the University Administration (VS) Management.
