The first considered the analysis of the sustainability into the curriculum through a rubric, a green audit to the institution through a check list and a survey to 115 students and 7 teachers, also a structured interview to 110 students and 7 teachers. The elements of sustainability were the dimension. The second phase focused to the methodological proposal of NFSEEP. Results: The rubric evaluation registered 4, the maximum was 10, it expressed a little link between curriculum and sustainability.
