A brief description of the methodology used to determine the total number of courses offered and to identify sustainability course offerings, including the definitions used and the process for reviewing and/or validating the course inventory :
The methodology used to determine the total number of courses offered was the inclusion of the words "sustainability" and/or "sustainable development" and/or a reference to, at least, one of the United Nations Objectives for the Sustainable Development. The validation of the inventory was made by three researchers that review the curriculum of all the courses offered by the university. Since the evalution of the sample of courses was made on a three year base, it was included a PhD on Education that is not currently available.
