An uneven appropriation of norms related with research and environmental education was found and, despite the initial purpose was to elaborate a proposal for the local setting which allowed the inclusion of the environmental dimension in the university daily process, the findings permitted to submit a proposal for the national level centered in the modification of indicators and characteristics for programs'; high quality accreditation processes.
