Abstract
In this work, we analysed the mapping of the Sustainable Development Goals in the curricular units of the Social Sciences and Arts degree courses of the University of Évora. We took as reference the totality of the curricular units of Social Sciences (408) and Arts (261) degree courses existing in 2022. The data presented refer to the SDGs marked by teachers in the curricular units with the exception of SDG4 (Quality Education) previously marked by the university. The results showed that the most marked objectives in the area of social sciences were SDG5, SDG8. SDG10 and SDG16. In the Arts area, SDG3, SDG11. SDG12 and SDG13. We found statistically significant differences when comparing the Departments and also the scientific areas.
