Preston’s esteemed university has earned a prestigious position among the top 20 percent of global educational institutions recognized for its commendable contribution to society and the environment.

The influential Times Higher Education (THE) Impact Rankings conducted a comprehensive evaluation of universities worldwide, focusing on their notable endeavors in advancing the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals.

Within this ranking system, Preston’s University of Central Lancashire, has secured its position in the 201-300 category out of an impressive total of 1,591 esteemed institutions spanning the globe.

Speaking on the matter, UCLan Pro Vice-Chancellor for Research and Enterprise Professor StJohn Crean said:

“This is the first time we have submitted to the THE Impact Rankings so we’re delighted to rank so highly and will aim to build on this next year. These rankings look at all aspects of the University’s operations, including teaching, research, estates and student welfare. We are committed to being an anchor institution and contributing towards economic and social growth on a regional, national and international scale. Whether this is inspiring the next generation through science at our award-winning Lancashire Science Festival, supporting SME’s and start-up businesses, helping to boost the North West’s health economy by training health and dental professionals or leading on life-changing research projects.”

UCLan achieved remarkable scores across various crucial categories, demonstrating its commitment to promoting and excelling in areas such as optimal health and well-being, exceptional quality education, accessible and clean energy, responsible consumption and production, as well as fostering valuable partnerships to achieve sustainable goals.
