AB  - Several studies deal with the description and categorization 
of perception of corporate social responsibility. Focusing on 
university students contributes to the development of proper 
education and business strategies for increasing social 
responsibility. Besides exploring the differences in personal 
attitudes by socio-demographic characteristics, it is 
essential to understand the common influential factors behind 
the perceptions and attitudes related to the field. This 
paper explores the perceptions of Hungarian university 
students related to sustainability and CSR and aims at 
detecting the most important factors which influence these 
perceptions based on a data set of 397 higher education 
students from three Hungarian universities. The differences 
in students’ perceptions between subsamples by gender, 
university and CSR-related knowledge were detected by 
nonlinear canonical correlation analysis. Key findings 
suggest that females have a more sensitive approach to 
environmental and social problems, and a greater trust in CSR 
than males as opposed to male students with a more techno-
optimistic view. Impacts of CSR-related studies and 
institutional background of universities on students’ 
perceptions are also highlighted. Common latent influential 
factors affecting students’ perceptions were explored and 
illustrated graphically by multidimensional scaling 
methodology. The two-dimensional solutions of the method show 
that students’ perceptions associated with sustainability, 
CSR, environmental impacts of industries and the presence of 
global problems are influenced by two latent but identifiable 
dimensions separately; however, the weights of dimensions 
differ by gender, academic background and former CSR studies 
of the individuals of students. We can conclude that 
understanding these common factors and their importance could 
contribute to an appropriate and comprehensive development of 
CSR education.
