ABSTRACT: Sustainability and sustainable development have
aroused many debates and actions in all facets of human endeavors, including in
developing countries. This study examined the extent to which tertiary business
schools in Ghana embrace sustainability in their curricula. By using programs
advertised on their respective institutions’ websites for the 2022-2023
academic year, and looking for programs that have sustainability or
sustainability as a prefix. Additionally, the author relied on the examination
timetable of the selected institutions for sustainability prefixes. The
researcher finds that sustainability education in tertiary business faculties
in Ghana is alarmingly low; despite the fact that corporate social
responsibility as a course is taught in accounting courses, it is not enough to
address sustainability issues in business faculties. This study recommends that
it behooves the government and education regulators in partnership with large
corporations to institute schemes that could entice business schools to include
sustainability issues in their business education curricula.
