This work aimed to understand the process of curricular setting in Biological Sciences courses offered by Universidade Federal de Campina Grande, Paraíba (UFCG). From a research of qualitative nature, of a “Case Study” type, a document analysis of the Pedagogical Project was carried out, as well as the bibliography and programs of the disciplines of three Biological Sciences courses of the UFCG, Paraíba, Brazil. Semi-structured interviews were also conducted with the coordinators of these courses and teachers responsible for the selected disciplines. With the data analysis, it was noticed that these courses have incorporated the environmental theme in their curricula, but are concentrated in optional curricular components. Furthermore, it was found that the course setting is a complex process.
