The purpose of the research was to analyze the relationship between the recycling awareness of the students and the environmental education they undertake in KAED. The study examined the differences in recycling awareness among the students of KAED and focused towards the students’ recycling awareness in relation to the year of study and the environmental studies they undertake. Chi-square and correlation were calculated for the data to determine the difference in recycling awareness among students in different years of study with respect to gender, department, attitude, facilities location and recycling knowledge undertaken in the faculty. The findings showed that the students’ recycling awareness is significantly related to the year of study. Gender and department showed no relation with the recycling awareness of the students. The results also showed that facilities location played an important part on awareness. Recommendations included intensifying the environmental educational programs to plan for more sustainable environments and increasing the number of recycling bins for better accessibility.
