Corporate Social Responsibility, university students, knowledge of social responsibility, PeruResumo
Adopting University Social Responsibility (USR) requires universities to commit to educating socially responsible professionals, which entails incorporating Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) into the curricula of degree programs that prepare future managers. This study examines the knowledge that students enrolled in such programs acquired regarding this concept at five universities in Peru that publicly endorse University Social Responsibility, with the aim of determining whether differences exist across universities, degree programs, and academic levels within each program.
We selected Peruvian universities because the country has established a legal framework that promotes the incorporation of Social Responsibility into higher education institutions. We measured students’ knowledge using an instrument validated in previous research. The findings indicate that most students demonstrate knowledge of a broad range of Corporate Social Responsibility practices, that differences emerge across universities but not across degree programs, and that students’ knowledge increases as they progress through their academic programs. These results demonstrate the positive effect of state policies promoting University Social Responsibility on the education of socially responsible professionals.
