Abstract: This research aimed to understand the environmental awareness (EA), attitudes and behaviours of undergraduates from Tzu Chi University, a university that actively promotes environmental protection. Survey results showed that their EA were very high, with strong and favourable environmental attitudes, while their environmental behaviours ranged from slightly below neutral to relatively high and hence differed from other local undergraduates, general Taiwanese public and undergraduates from other regions. Class standings of sophomores and above performed better for several environmental behaviours. Undergraduates with higher moral norms regarding environmental protection exhibited higher EA, attitudes and behaviours. The influences of gender were non-significant.
