Unfortunately, we can often observe the false tendency in separate treating of economic, social and environmental aspects of the sustainable development what results the lack of appropriate curricula in this area. The main shortcoming of education for sustainable development at the high education level is the lack of a primary course which presenting the basis of sustainable development. Similar conclusions refers to the University of Economics in Katowice. Education in this area haven't systemic character covering all kinds of study. A positive aspect of the educational offer proposed by the University of Economics is more and more to address issues related to sustainable development in the different courses, and thus the knowledge of the term sustainable development among students.
