Sustainability in pedagogical projects in higher education: a study concerning the production engineering of public universities in São Paulo State. Avaliação [online]. 2017, vol.22, n.3, pp.676-696.

The Production Engineering introduces skills related to the understanding of relations between the productive phenomenon and its consequences in the economic, social and environmental spheres, giving the professionals working in this field an important role in the development of alternatives that minimize the impacts of the production systems, as a requirement of sustainability. In the other hand, the pedagogical design of a course is a process of collective construction that reveals the worldview and vision of society of actors involved with an educational institution. This research is a documental study that seeks to identify which dimensions of sustainability are addressed in the educational proposals of undergraduate Production Engineering courses at the public universities in São Paulo state. The analysis of the educational project contents of the Polytechnic School and the School of Engineering of São Carlos (University of São Paulo) and the Federal University of São Carlos indicates the concept linked to concerns about the environmental impacts of the production system and the emphasis about the role of enterprises and technology for sustainability, setting the privileged dimensions inside the proposals of these courses.
