At LJMU we’re changing the way we consume and produce goods to ensure an increased focus on sustainability. The concept of sustainability has influenced our curriculum, with students having the opportunity to learn about sustainable production in existing modules. Our research and knowledge exchange efforts have also helped to revolutionise material production as far afield as Bangladesh and the Philippines.
LJMU research and facilities help to protect marine life and preserve our oceans for future generations. Locally, we offer state of the art facilities for students to train the next generation of maritime experts. We also work closely with ports and maritime companies to tackle key industry challenges. Internationally, our researchers have used forensic science to curb the illegal trade of marine wildlife and to detect microplastics in seas.
