A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the inventory:
Sustainability-focused and sustainability-related courses are identified in the course catalog by title and description. The Faculty Planning Committee and earlier versions of the same group have incorporated sustainability concepts into the interdisciplinary core curriculum establishing sustainability-focused classes such as "The Environmental Citizen" and "Environmental Sustainability" that are required of every Unity College student. Other program-specific sustainability-focused and sustainability-related courses identified in the catalog by course title and/or appropriate course description include "Economics of Resource Conservation and Sustainability," "Sustainable Enterprise," and "Sustainable Societies." Sustainability-focused and sustainability-related courses are not identified by other special characters or a stand-alone listing.
