A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the inventory:
The University's sustainability-focused and sustainability-related courses were identified by employing two different strategies. First, a survey was sent out to all faculty members requesting that they self-identify their courses that are either sustainability-focused and sustainability-related according to the definitions provided to them. Second, STARS assessment team members reviewed all the most current course descriptions available and identified those that appeared to be sustainability-focused and sustainability-related based on the descriptions. These determinations were used when instructor self-identification wasn't available. Once the final inventory was compiled, it was sent out to faculty members for their review. The inventory was revised according to faculty feedback.
