Abstract
- With the adoption of sustainability continuing to gain momentum, there has never been a better time for business schools to understand the extent to which they are preparing students to contribute to sustainable organizations and society. The current research seeks to help schools advance this aim by examining the extent to which sustainability is being integrated within business school curricula. We accomplish this through a systematic analysis of 529 websites from undergraduate marketing programs accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). To further our understanding of how sustainability can be integrated into curricula, we draw upon prior research and the United Nations' Blueprint for Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Integration to propose a new sustainability curriculum framework. This research fills a gap in the literature by offering a comprehensive look at the state of sustainability in marketing education and offers direction for programs seeking to meet market demands, advance SDG goals, and fulfill current AACSB standards.
