A brief description of the methodology used to complete the course inventory :
We listed all classes offered and separated them by the school, and then department. We created a new list of courses that were openly sustainability-focused. We have conducted a survey among all of our faculty members asking them if they included sustainability, climate science, and/or environmental justice in their classes and how. Based on their responses we have selected some courses to make the list of sustainability-inclusive classes.
How were courses with multiple offerings or sections counted for the figures reported above?:
Each offering or section of a course was counted as an individual course
A brief description of how courses with multiple offerings or sections were counted:
Most of the classes that are either sustainability-focused or sustainability-inclusive have only one offering per semester. For the classes that have multiple offerings per semester, we consulted the professors of each class to check if they all included sustainability-related topics in their classes.
