Environmental education for sustainability and its contribution to holistic learning at the Faculty of Architecture, Urbanism and Arts, National University of Engineering, Lima, Peru

Abstract

The objective of this study is to explain how environmental education for sustainability is important in student academic training for learning with a holistic vision at the Faculty of Architecture, Urbanism and Arts of the National University of Engineering in Lima. The basic research had a quantitative, causal correlational approach with a non-experimental design. The population consisted of 80 teachers and 100 students. The instrument applied was the questionnaire. It is evidenced that teachers, on a smaller scale, incorporate environmental education in their different subjects with attitudinal and axiological contents that contribute to the formation of values and attitudes of coexistence; but they do consider that environmental education is important for sustainability with a holistic vision.
