PurposeThis本研究的目的是探讨整合的可持续发展的概念和目标到高等教育研究的课程使用的例子贝尔格莱德大学的三个院系。设计/方法/approachA定性内容分析已应用于两个层面：从使用可持续性跟踪、评估和评级系统定义的标准开始评估课程的可持续性（ASHE，2017），并使用与选定的可持续发展目标（SDG）相关的教科文组织学习目标作为标准，分析了三个学院内科目课程中定义的成果。结果虽然分析了建筑学院的课程数量最多，但安全研究学院的可持续性课程比例最高。这两个研究领域都反映了更强的跨学科方向，尽管在Andragogy研究计划的情况下应该加强。根据建筑学院的经验，通过理论与实践相结合的课程实施可能会显着有助于实现LO和实施可持续发展教育。在贝尔格莱德大学，战略文件是失踪，将鼓励和责成院系应用可持续发展的概念。独创性/valueThis是第一次研究，适用于这种类型的课程分析在贝尔格莱德大学。它由来自大学的教师执行，来自不同的学科领域，但面向跨学科的角度。虽然在一所大学内的三个具体研究领域进行，但所确定的差距和趋势可能有助于规划干预措施，以加快在高等教育课程中实施可持续发展目标。
PurposeThis purpose of this study is to explore the integration of the sustainable development concept and goals into the curriculum of higher education studies using the example of three faculties of the University of Belgrade.Design/methodology/approachA qualitative content analysis has been applied on two levels: the evaluation of the sustainability of courses starting from the criteria defined using the Sustainability Tracking, Assessment and Rating System (ASHE, 2017), and the analysis of the outcomes defined in the curricula of subjects within the three faculties using the UNESCO learning objectives related to selected sustainable development goals (SDGs) as a criteria.FindingsWhile the largest number of courses were analyzed from the Faculty of Architecture, the highest proportion of sustainability courses was found in the Faculty of Security Studies. Both study areas reflect a stronger interdisciplinary orientation, although it should be strengthened in the case of the Andragogy study program. Based on the experience of the Faculty of Architecture, the courses implemented by linking theory and practice may significantly contribute to achieving the LOs and to implementing the education for sustainable development. At the University of Belgrade, strategic documents are missing that would encourage and oblige the faculties to apply the concept of sustainability.Originality/valueThis is the first study to apply this type of curricula analysis at the University of Belgrade. It is performed by teachers from the university, coming from different disciplinary fields but oriented towards an interdisciplinary perspective. Although performed in three specific study areas within a single university, the identified gaps and trends may be useful for planning interventions toward accelerating the implementation of SDGs in the higher education curricula.
