Abstract: Business schools worldwide are integrating sustainability into their curricula, yet a gap persists in understanding students' perspectives on these courses' effectiveness in preparing for sustainability challenges. This study investigates undergraduate students' perceptions of essential sustainability skills and knowledge they learn in a business school. Through three focus group interviews with 15 undergraduates, four themes emerged: mindsets, skills, learning approaches, and global perspectives. Students expect sustainability education to enhance comprehension, workforce readiness, and life skills, emphasising technical and global competencies. They advocate for more engaging, integrated online and face-to-face learning approaches to better prepare for sustainability careers.
