Environmental sustainability is a vitally important topic globally but is all too often absent from university level courses in favour of a core curriculum. Using examples of good practice in the curriculum of the BSc (Hons) Audio Engineering course at Leeds Beckett University, the paper will explore ways of embedding environmental sustainability into common audio related classroom exercises and assignment work. The outcomes of running these exercises over the last 5 years will be evaluated and suggestions made regarding how the audio education community can improve their practice in this area.
