Abstract: Environmental education is an important part of specialist train- ing. Integrated environmental education helps develop future professionals’ abilities to understand the impact of professional activities on the environ- ment, make decisions and act to prevent damage to the environment. This study examines the patterns of integrating environmental education into cur- ricula for training engineers in the field of construction, to study the rela- tionship between environmental knowledge and attitudes. The results showed that students’ environmental knowledge and attitudes to the environ- ment are positively correlated, but to a weak degree. The introduction of environmental education helps develop students’ knowledge and under- standing of environmental problems and their causes.
