Buckinghamshire New University

Graduates with the relevant technical prowess to match the demands of the wider economy, including digital, management, and people skills are key to the transition towards net zero and a successful ‘green economy’.

The government’s Ten Point Plan for a Green Industrial Revolution sets out a broad vision for the priority sector transitions needed to achieve net-zero emissions. We take great pride in educating the future workforce about the path to net-zero as part of BNU’s mission to provide modern and relevant skills-based courses that empower our graduates to impact positively on the wider world.

Three industries have the most immediate and pressing targets to decarbonise the economy: home efficiency; automotive and electric vehicles; and clean power. BNU courses are designed to meet industry needs and ensure that our graduates’ skills make them work-ready to hit the ground running in supporting businesses with meeting the government’s decarbonisation targets. Multidisciplinary courses offered at BNU provide students with a sound understanding of project management, digital proficiency, design and environment sustainability, and supply chain management, all of which equip our graduates to play a successful role on the pathway to a greener economy.
