Abstract:	The aim of this study is to analyse sustainability attitudes among university students in Slovenia and how two different academic variables influence these attitudes. Using the Sustainability Attitudes Scale (SAS), we investigate the effects of students’ field and level of study on their attitudes towards sustainability. ANOVA results show that the field of study significantly impacts sustainability attitudes, while we can not say the same for the level of study. Moreover, findings from Spearman’s rank correlation tests indicate a positive correlation between students’ sustainability knowledge and their attitudes, highlighting the potential of targeted educational programs to foster more positive attitudes towards sustainable practices. This study contributes valuable insights for developing more effective sustainability education strategies within similar contexts.

Abstract:	Cilj te študije je analizirati stališča do trajnostnega razvoja med univerzitetnimi študenti v Sloveniji in kako dve različni akademski spremenljivki vplivata na ta stališča. Z uporabo lestvice stališč do trajnostnega razvoja (SAS) preučujemo vpliv študijskega področja in stopnje študija študentov na njihov odnos do trajnostnega razvoja. Rezultati ANOVA kažejo, da področje študija pomembno vpliva na stališča do trajnostnega razvoja, medtem ko tega ne moremo trditi za stopnjo študija. Poleg tega ugotovitve Spearmanovega testa korelacije rangov kažejo na pozitivno korelacijo med znanjem študentov o trajnostnem razvoju in njihovim stališčem, kar poudarja potencial ciljno usmerjenih izobraževalnih programov za spodbujanje pozitivnih stališč do trajnostnih praks. Ta študija prispeva dragocene vpoglede v razvoj učinkovitejših strategij izobraževanja o trajnostnem razvoju v podobnih kontekstih.
