A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory (including the types of faculty and staff included as researchers):
The responsible party from the Sustainability Council (SC), two full-time SC staff, and three SC research associates conducted a university-wide review of all listed research faculty (part-time and full-time). This inventory consisted of a methodical review of current faculty listings of all academic faculties, departments and divisions. These listings were deemed to have the most current information relating to faculty and their current areas of research and publication list. The review consisted of compiling all non-clinical faculty that were actively engaged in research. Inclusions: - Faculty members (Assistant Professors, Associate Professors, and Professors) - Trust and Adjunct Faculty members Exclusions: - Emeritus (unless currently engaged in research) - Post-doctoral fellows - Sessional and faculty lecturers - Non-academic (support) staff members This inventory is organized alphabetically by faculty/department.
