Abstract

Environmental education is an essential instrument for the formation of a critical conscience in society as a whole. The formation of the agronomy course must be intrinsically linked to environmental issues, since the activities developed by the future professional have direct consequences to nature, so the decisions must have as pillars, the understanding of environmental issues and the promotion of the sustainability in agroescosystems. The present research had as aim to perform a diagnosis on the environmental perception of students and professors of the agronomy undergraduate course of the Agricultural Sciences Center of the Federal University of Alagoas (CECA – UFAL). This work was carried out through a qualitative research, where the data collection was based on a questionnaire, with a sample of 95 students and 15 teachers. Therefore, a deficient and inconsistent approach regarding environmental education in the agronomy course of the CECA-UFAL, thus it is recommended that more disciplines be inserted for environmental education, not only in the course of agronomy, but in all the course of the area of agrarian sciences.
