Our Campus

This is AUB. A place to shape and build your work; to learn, share, provoke and collaborate.

Environment and the curriculum

We're a creative community that is committed to and shares a passion for the disciplines of art, design, media and performance.

Ensuring learners are informed of and responsible for their actions and consequences within the three pillars of sustainable development (social, environmental, and economical) is key to the success of an environmentally sustainable, ethical, and caring campus. Furthermore, the Sustainable Development Goals are threaded through course content and outcomes. We hope for in consequence, a graduate community that changes the industries they migrate to for good.
