A brief description of the methodology used to complete the course inventory :
Carleton's Director of Environmental Studies collaborated with the sustainability assistant (STA) program to identify sustainability focused and sustainability related courses by looking through the registrar's list of courses and classifying relevant courses as "sustainability-focused" or "sustainability-related." This list is posted on the sustainability website.
Furthermore, the Majors and Concentrations tab in the College's Academics web page includes Sustainability in a list of "Other Topics of Interest." The courses listed in that link are maintained by a professor in Carleton's environmental studies department.
