The Student Sustainability Research Conference (SSRC) will return on Wednesday 4 March 2025 in Parkinson Court at the University of Leeds.

We encourage students and staff from the University of York who are interested in sustainability to come along and be inspired by student projects and presentations.

This event is free to attend and transport will be provided to and from the conference, leaving from York (please indicate that you would like transport when you register).

About the event

The Student Sustainability Research Conference (SSRC) offers students across all levels and disciplines from the twelve member institutions of Yorkshire Universities the opportunity to be inspired, share their sustainability-related research and learn from their student peers from across the region in a professional conference setting.

The conference provides a unique opportunity for students, staff, partners, collaborators and members of the public to appreciate the breadth and diversity of student sustainability research across all levels of study. With research presented across a range of disciplines, the conference brings together creative expressions and scientific investigation to demonstrate the holistic nature of sustainability.

Careers in Sustainability: Meet the Employers

Following the success in SSRC25, the Sustainability Service and Employer Engagement Team at the University of Leeds are hosting a networking event for students, staff, employers and alumni to connect around careers in sustainability.

Last year, we welcomed organisations such as The Environment Agency, Emerald Publishing, SAIL – Leeds and many more.

Tickets will be available soon.
