Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
The count of faculty conducting sustainability research was based on a review of active, sponsored research projects over the 2011 Fiscal Year. It includes faculty (i.e. Assistant, Associate, and Full Professors)PI's and co-PI's that were active on a sponsored research project that met the definition of sustainability research described in ER-15. The total number of faculty engaged in research came from Office of Institutional Research data. For 2011, OVPR reports that there were 1,280 faculty on the Twin Cities campus engaged in all, sponsored research projects.
