Until recently, Higher Education Institutions in Mexico have been responsible for developing a society that understands environmental issues and participates in problem-solving by incorporating environmental thinking in their essential functions of teaching, research, and popularization of culture. In this paper, we present the results of a research project at and for Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla (BUAP) related to identifying the way in which the philosophy of environmental thinking has been incorporated into the syllabi at undergraduate and postgraduate degrees. This incorporation has occurred at BUAP in the last lew decades because this institution has been applying guidelines in terms of academic environmental thinking that have been generated at international, Latin American, national, and Higher Education Institutions contexts in both its development plans and educational models. Among these actions, a proposal to include both the environmental parameters in all the undergraduate syllabi and the design and offer of undergraduate and postgraduate degrees with syllabi focused on the study of Environmental Sciences from a disciplinary and multidisciplinary perspective is emphasized in this paper. Since 2009, the design and implementation of Modelo Universitario Minerva (MUM) with the incorporation of the environment as a cross-cutting topic in higher education studies have been useful to include environmental thinking in the training of BUAP’s undergraduate and graduate students.
