Description of the methodology used to complete the research inventory:

During the sustainability course survey in Spring 2023, all departments were also asked to identfiy all faculty and staff involved in sustainability research. Each had to be justified by referring to UN SDGs. and coded with at least one SDG.

To capture additional sustainability related research by faculty and staff, the Buffalo State Research Foundation provided a list of all funded projects from campus PIs for the 3 years 2020-2023. In addition, all funded applications from  the Undergraduate Reseaerch Office were also reviewed.
