Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
In responding to this credit, UC Irvine elected to focus solely on undergraduate degrees. The first number cited above reflects the total of all bachelor's degrees granted in the Claire Trevor School of the Arts, The Paul Merage School of Business, The Henry Samueli School of Engineering, and the Donald Bren School of Information and Computer Sciences; the schools of Biological Sciences, Humanities, Physical Sciences, Social Ecology, and Social Sciences; as well as UC Irvine’s programs in Nursing Science, Pharmaceutical Sciences, and Public Health. Both numbers reflect degrees granted in the Fall-to-Summer Degree Year 2011-2012. UC Irvine posts learning outcomes separate from the sustainability course inventory completed for AASHE STARS.
