The ranking is a way to recognize institutions that are making efforts to reduce their carbon footprint and playing a role in combatting global climate change.
UMT performed superiorly on all indicators, especially in the education and research segment.
For the UI GreenMetric Ranking 2021, UMT progressed from its 620th spot to 512th position globally. A total of 52 universities from Pakistan participated in the UI GreenMetric Ranking 2021, with UMT securing the 21st position.
