This remarkable jump represents an improvement of nearly 100 positions compared to its previous standing. With this result, TSUL ranks highest among Uzbek higher-education institutions in the 2025 list.

This year’s competition was especially strong: around 1,745 institutions from 105 countries took part.

UI GreenMetric evaluates participating universities across six sustainability-focused dimensions: Setting & Infrastructure, Energy & Climate Change, Waste, Water, Transportation, and Education & Research.

By performing well across these criteria, TSUL has demonstrated a robust commitment to environmental responsibility, sustainable campus development, and integration of green principles into campus life and administration.

This achievement reflects not only TSUL’s internal efforts - improving infrastructure, energy efficiency, waste and water management, sustainable transport options, and embedding sustainability in education and research - but also signals a larger shift in Uzbek higher education toward global environmental standards. It sets a new benchmark for other universities in the country.

Being among the top 200 worldwide elevates TSUL’s global visibility and attractiveness to prospective partners, students, and collaborators interested in sustainability and “green campus” initiatives. It is a showcase of TSUL’s strategic vision - not only as a leading law university domestically but also as a forward-looking institution aligned with global environmental values.

TSUL’s leap in the 2025 UI GreenMetric ranking underscores its growing global footprint and reaffirms Uzbekistan’s progress toward sustainable higher education.
