Number of graduates from degree programs that require an understanding of the concept of sustainability:
5,706

A brief description of how the figure above was determined:
The total number of graduates from degree programs were calculated by adding all degrees granted from bachelors, masters, and doctoral programs within the academic year 2022-2023, as well as two (2) minors that were included in this submission.

To identify the number of graduates from degree programs that require an understanding of the concept of sustainability, the courses that were identified as "sustainability-focused" from AC-1: Academic Courses were separated from all other courses. Sustainability Initiatives Co-Coordinators and Interns reviewed degree programs to which these courses belong, and identified whether each sustainability-focused course was required for graduation from that degree program. Total number of graduates from degree programs that require an understanding of the concept of sustainability were determined by counting the number of graduates from these degree programs that required at least one (1) sustainability-focused course to fulfill graduation requirements.

The attached documentation labeled "AC 2 Course List and Degree Graduates 2022-2023" contains the list of sustainability-focused courses from AC-1 on the tab "AC2 Courses", and summarizing information, including a final table, of graduates from degree programs that require an understanding of the concept of sustainability on the tab "Summary of Graduating Programs".
