Research Inventory
Inventory of the institution’s sustainability research:

A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory:
The Office of Research and Project Administration provided a list of Principal Investigators and Co-Principal Investigators who had research awards in academic year 2019-2020. This list was further narrowed down to only include faculty (i.e. postdocs/research scholars, graduate students, non-academic staff, and visiting faculty were not included). The Office of Sustainability then filtered this list by research interests to determine the number of sustainability researchers.

As a global research university, Princeton seeks to achieve the highest levels of distinction in the discovery and transmission of knowledge and understanding. At the same time, Princeton is distinctive among research universities in its commitment to undergraduate teaching. Interdisciplinary work is vital to Princeton and is reflected in a full spectrum of academic programs. The Grand Challenges research program in particular engages faculty from disparate disciplines with postdoctoral fellows and graduate and undergraduate students to examine the scientific, technical, public-policy and human dimensions of climate and energy, water, global health, sustainable development and the urban environment.
The Andlinger Center for Energy and the Environment also supports research and teaching in the areas of sustainable energy-technology development, energy efficiency, and environmental protection and remediation with the goal to translate fundamental knowledge into practical solutions.
