Abstract
Over the past decade, sustainability education has been an essential subject that many universities have infused into their curricula. However, no research has analysed the infusion of sustainability education in the curriculum. Such knowledge is essential for educators and policy-makers to develop relevant and contemporary curricula to produce future-ready graduates. This chapter is closing this gap by tracing sustainability education in the business schools of two Australian university branch campuses in Malaysia. An exploratory case study approach was used. The unit course details have been analysed thematically according to sustainability education literature. It was discovered that most keywords were found in the core and capstone units across a three-year bachelor's degree but with a higher emphasis on year-one units. This finding suggests that building the fundamentals of sustainability education from year one is essential.
