The topic of sustainability has taken root in the world of science and business, and much has been said about introducing the concept to businesses or the construction industry. Much less attention has been paid to describing the proposed improvements in educational institutions, such as universities. The study aims to find space in both the employee and student environment to introduce the idea of sustainability, not only in terms of green buildings but also in the concept of work. The authors focused on identifying the most valuable benefits and the barriers that are most likely to hinder the process. They took Wrocław University of Science and Technology (Wrocław Tech) as the subject of the study. The entire study consisted of an analysis of university documents, as well as interviews with experts and students involved in university life. Taking into account the results of the analysis, conclusions were presented for further study.

Edukacja była i pozostaje najsilniejszym stymulatorem rozwoju społecznego, a jej celem pozostaje niezmiennie przygotowanie młodych ludzi do skutecznej i odpowiedzialnej aktywności społecznej i zawodowej na kolejnych etapach życia. Rola uniwersytetów i wyższych uczelni jest w tym zakresie strategiczna, bo współpracując z młodymi ludźmi w ramach ostatniego etapu edukacji formalnej, powinny przygotować ich do wspierania zrównoważonego rozwoju społeczeństwa poprzez odpowiedzialne i kompetentne pełnienie ról społecznych i zawodowych. Priorytetem dla aktywności uniwersytetu, uwzględniającej kształcenie na poziomie akademickim i działalność naukowo-badawczą, powinno być stałe odniesienie do potrzeb i problemów zmieniającego się społeczeństwa.
