Higher education institutions are relevant to the formation of a society, given their role in education and the dissemination of knowledge. This research evaluates how the Sustainability theme has been treated in an HEI, based on the application of the instrument AISHE - Assessment Instrument for Sustainability in Higher Education. The qualitative and quantitative approach was adopted, through the analysis of questionnaires applied to 42 coordinators of the campus undergraduate courses and managers of the Central Administration of a Public University. The target audience assigns scores for 30 criteria distributed in 5 modules, making it possible to assess and understand the sustainability situation on campus. The research module presented the most critical scenario, while the society module was the best evaluated. The current scenario results from the existence of few initiatives and their limited functioning; but there is a promising outlook, as the new PDI incorporated assumptions and deadlines compatible with the 2030 Agenda.
