| Summary: | Environmental Education, when applied in the classroom, is a way to change the attitudes which allow students to build a new way of understanding the reality in which they live, stimulating environmental awareness, sustainability and citizenship. However, professors are not always prepared to discuss the socio-environmental theme with the authorities. Therefore, the need to know the curricular design in Mechanical Engineering on Environmental Education is the objective of this, that was carried out in a private university in Sao Paulo, with teachers of the Mechanical Engineering career. The data showed an attitude that tends to “ingenuity”, on the part of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, about social and environmental problems, which is explained by the historical development of engineering, the profile of the course and the training of these professors.
