Abstract

The study aims to determine the strength of ecological culture at the Military Academy, assess the quality of higher education at the Academy, and examine the potential impact of ecological culture on the quality of higher education in this context. The descriptive-analytical approach was employed, and primary data were collected through the students at the Military Academy.The study found that the strength of ecological culture at the Military Academy was moderate, as perceived by the study sample. Most dimensions were available at the Academy, including General Appearance and Environmental Preservation within the Military Academy, Lighting and Noise within the Military Academy, Air Quality in the Military Academy, Food Quality in the Military Academy, and Drinking Water Quality in the Military Academy. Additionally, the study revealed that the quality of higher education at the Military Academy was rated as high, according to the study sample. Most dimensions were present at the Academy, including Responsibility and Community Service, Safety and Health, Quality of the Educational Process within the Military Academy, Continuous Improvement of the Educational Process, Scientific Research, Physical Educational Environment Quality, and Non-Physical Educational Environment Quality. Furthermore, The study demonstrated a statistically significant impact of ecological culture on the quality of higher education. There is also a statistically significant impact of all dimensions of ecological culture on the quality of higher education at the Military Academy, except for the dimension of General Appearance and Environmental Preservation, which was found to have no significant impact. Based on these results, several recommendations were made, including the use of solar energy as a clean alternative source of electricity, implementing mechanisms to conserve electrical energy within classrooms and offices outside of study hours to prevent energy wastage, conducting periodic assessments of the educational infrastructure to ensure alignment with the needs of students and academics, and organizing courses and guidance programs to help students develop self-management skills and cope with stress.
