Description
Summary:The negative changes occurring in nature and the environment have been the subject of attention for more than a century. Awareness of the problems and their successful solution are among the main tasks of future generations. This is especially true for university students preparing staff for positions that are directly related to nature conservation. The present study aims to compare the attitude of students from University of Forestry (UF) and University of National and World Economy (UNWE) to nature conservation. 311 students took part in the study - 219 from UNWE and 92 from UF. For the methodology we used a Questionnaire for attitude towards nature protection created in 2019. The results show higher values for UF students for the scale related to the actions taken for nature protection. The data are supported by statistical reliability. On the scale "knowledge" there are no significant differences between students from UF and UNWE.
