A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the course inventory:
After courses have been established for an upcoming semester, the final list of classes is sent back to professors where they can then submit an SU designation, which designates the class as a Sustainability Studies course. However, not all faculty choose to use course designations, and many courses which include sustainability (as opposed to sustainability focused courses) may not have been selected for designation as a Sustainability Studies course. Therefore, we also evaluated course listings for various departments including the School of Public Health, School of Public and Environmental Affairs, the Kelley School of Business, language programs, and more. At a university as large as Indiana University Bloomington, this list is surely not exhaustive.
