UNH Prioritizes Sustainability Practices
We've been STARS Platinum rated since 2017 from
the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE).
It's a distinction of just a handful of universities and colleges in the nation to
achieve this highest level of sustainability performance.
Our practices, and successes, are a university-wide effort from faculty, staff, and students.
