The article explores how Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are integrated into architectural education, given the significant environmental impact of buildings. It examines the current state of SDG education in architecture, the challenges faced, and opportunities for improvement. A survey conducted among architecture educators from various institutions revealed that most did not receive formal SDG training and relied on self-learning. SDG 11, focused on sustainable urban development, was the most commonly adopted, with an emphasis on improving slums, providing safe housing, and preserving cultural heritage.
