This study presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis of the research landscape surrounding Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues within the context of education. Drawing upon 303 documents indexed in the Scopus database between 2004 and 2024, and employing analytical tools such as VOSviewer and Biblioshiny, the study maps the intellectual structure, thematic evolution, and collaborative networks of this emerging interdisciplinary field. The analysis reveals six major thematic clusters, spanning ESG performance, sustainable finance, governance frameworks, and digital transformation in higher education. Leading contributions originate from institutions in China, the United States, and several European nations, with the journal Sustainability identified as the most influential publication outlet. Keyword co-occurrence and bibliographic coupling analyses demonstrate a shift from foundational sustainability discourse to more advanced topics such as quality assurance, policy integration, and technological innovation. The findings offer actionable insights for researchers, policymakers, and educational institutions aiming to embed ESG principles into university curricula, governance practices, and long-term strategic planning. Furthermore, this study contributes to the growing body of knowledge by outlining a structured roadmap for future research at the intersection of ESG and education.
