A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory:
It was assumed that all departments conduct research and 90% all full-time faculty conduct research.
To identify sustainability researchers emails were sent to department heads and previous sustainability researchers. Second, a presentation was given to Academic Council and and a survey was created to more easily capture data on sustainability related courses, research and projects. The Provost also sent out the survey link encouraging faculty to respond.
The survey and emails all included definitions of sustainability research. Responses and relevant hyperlinks were added to the attached file.
Additionally keyword searches for sustainability, climate change, food waste, environmental, recycling and sustainable development were conducted in the Digital Commons Library.
