Has the institution identified its sustainability-focused and sustainability-related course offerings?:
Yes
A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the inventory:
Through a Live Green! Internship, a student looked at all courses offered at the university and identify which courses were sustainability-related and which were sustainability-focused. By reading course descriptions available in ISU’s course catalog, courses were marked if they met either of the sustainability definitions used. Finally, all course names and descriptions were compiled into the Live Green! Sustainability Course Directory by college.
