Abstract

The Corporate Social Responsibility (csr) topic has aroused the interest of the media and of academics around the world. However, administration schools still lack classes that teach the subject. Since these students will be the next corporate managers, a deep study of this teaching issue should be better investigated. This study investigated undergraduate administration students’ perception of how csr is taught, using in depth interviews with thirteen students from two universities in Rio de Janeiro. It was found that the students believe they know what csr means, but their definitions of it were very superficial. The results of this study also show that many students feel that this issue should receive better, more prominent coverage at universities, especially as regards its practice. However, one of the surveyed universities has recently changed its curriculum to include an obligatory class on csr.
