A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the inventory:
The full list of courses offered at Loyola Marymount University were reviewed and first based on course name. Once sustainability-focused and sustainability-related courses were identified by title then both course description and objectives were reviewed to determine which category the courses would fall into, either focused or related, if at all. And in reviewing the course description and objectives we looked to see if the course fulfilled one or more of the following criterion:
1) Course discusses issues of natural resource use and management
2)Course examines issues relating to preservation and environmental regulation
3)Course should analyze human-environment interactions; how has past and present generations addressed issues concerning socioeconomic and environmental challenges in their respective times
4)Course discusses how present and future generations will address issues such as energy, technology, social enterprise, government, ecosystems, food resources, policy, law, and education
