A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory (including the types of faculty and staff included as researchers):
Our Office of Sustainability has a faculty, staff, and student fellows program that is voluntary, but the fellows commit to submitting a grant, publishing a paper, or giving a professional presentation on some aspect of their original research in sustainability. We track these fellows each year and have them commit each year to some effort in sustainability. The faculty and staff that have made this commitment are listed in this section. Our office also contacted the Office of Contracts & Grants to receive a comprehensive list of active grants at Indiana State University. With this list, we were able to identify sustainability research.
