The Bachelor's Degrees in Environmental Sciences in Mexico and the Sustainable Development Goals
Abstract
Universities play an important role in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through teaching and the generation of relevant scientific knowledge. Bachelor's degrees in the environmental area generate specialists focused on sustainable development, however, this approach is usually reflected globally in the study plans and in some degrees it is not very specific. The objective of this research was to carry out a comparative analysis of the study plans of 19 undergraduate educational programs in the area of environmental sciences in Mexico and to know the contribution towards the goal of what is proposed in the United Nations 2030 Agenda. The methodology was of a documentary type: search, review and compilation of information from the study plans. The results highlight that in the study plans the learning units that address issues related to SDGs 6, 7, 13, 14 and 15 are from 8 to 34, that is: an average of 34.69% of learning units integrated in the curricula of the different degrees.
