Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
These estimates are based on the word "sustainability" being included in the very brief course catalog description or title OR the courses including a large sustainability component as self-reported by faculty who participated in the faculty development program for incorporating sustainability in the curriculum. Many more courses address sustainability learning objectives, and a more complete inventory is planned.
