Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the question of whether the current form of economic higher education meets the goals of sustainable education. In order to do this, author examined whether university students studying economics perform better in a special financial field, in their answers to the question of borrowing. For this purpose, author analysed the results of his own previous questionnaire survey using statistical methods. Among the questions in the questionnaire was selected those that examine theoretical and practical knowledge related to loans. The results show that the level of theoretical and practical financial knowledge of Hungarian higher education students can still be improved. In order to do this, the basic knowledge should be generally taught in the financial courses in higher education, while more specific knowledge should be differentiated. A limitation of the research is that it only examined Hungarian university students, it may be worthwhile searching for foreign students with another query. Its originality, on the other hand, is the demonstration that in sustainable higher education, in addition to the introduction of new educational content and methods, students shall also acquire the ability of lifelong learning.
