ECOTEC is a dynamic and innovative university that continuously reimagines the role of higher education in sustainable development. Located in Ecuador, ECOTEC has stood out since 2007 for its commitment to academic excellence, sustainability, and social responsibility, preparing more than 10,000 students annually to tackle the challenges of a constantly evolving world.

At the core of our initiatives lies sustainability, integrated into every aspect of our operations. From the implementation of solar panels and the use of an irrigation system connected to our wastewater treatment plant to innovative projects like ecological gardens and the bioremediation of mangrove ecosystems, sustainability is our driving force.

Our commitments include constantly evaluating our environmental impact through the lens of the Sustainable Development Goals, promoting a culture of recycling and composting on campus, and executing transformative projects like installing free EV charging stations powered by our solar panels. Additionally, we actively promote environmental education and encourage our university community to engage in activities that enhance sustainability at the local, regional, and national levels.

With a passionate community of students, faculty, researchers, and administrative staff, ECOTEC is dedicated to being a key player in solving the world’s most pressing challenges. Our initiatives not only benefit our immediate community but also aim to serve as a model for others on a global scale. Our vision is clear: to move toward carbon neutrality and build a future where education and sustainability go hand in hand.
