ABOUT THE PROCESS
At SSN College, the process of identifying sustainability research is systematic and thorough. It begins with defining clear criteria for what qualifies as sustainability research, focusing on environmental, social, and economic aspects, such as climate change, renewable energy, and social equity. Academic departments are surveyed, and faculty members report their ongoing and completed sustainability-related projects, publications, and student theses. In addition, the college collaborates with research centers specializing in sustainability topics, and reviews grant applications to identify funded sustainability research. Once gathered, the data is verified, categorized by sustainability themes, and compiled into a central report. This process helps track and promote SSN College’s contributions to sustainability research while ensuring that these efforts are aligned with the institution’s broader goals of environmental stewardship and social responsibility.
