A brief description of how the figure above was determined:

Course level sustainability learning outcomes are unique to each course. The list of Sustainability Courses, and Courses that Include Sustainability are referenced in the Excel file provided with credit AC-1.

Sustainability Courses required for students to graduate (by major) were used to complete the analysis for AC-2. A file showing this cross referencing process is attached to this credit. In order to determine if the Sustainability Courses referenced in credit AC-1 were required courses in any major, the following links were consulted (Courses that Include Sustainability were not considered in this analysis):
