Being a large research university created challenges in conducting a research inventory given the amount and breadth of research being undertaken by very diverse departments and researchers, especially given the initial challenge of defining sustainbiity-related research. We created a methodology that would be systematic and replicable, knowing that the methodology might underreport research numbers. We are working with the Office of Research to develop a better way of identifying sustainability-related research.

To create our research inventory we utilized the same keywords used to identify academic courses to select classifications in the Human Experimental Research Data (HERD) classification system developed by NASA for reporting sustainability-related research. This allowed us to identify sustainability-related research, as well as faculty and staff associated with that research. The bulk of research identified fell within the College of the Environment, College of Built Environments, The Applied Physics Lab (atmospheric sciences and climate change research), and several College of Engineering departments (Civil and Environmental Engineering, Material Science and Engineering, Bioengineering). We acknowledge that research in areas such as business, public health, and arts & sciences may be under-represented and we are working with the Office of Research to develop a system to identify research in these areas in a systematic and replicable way.

Number of faculty doing sustainability-related research and number of faculty doing research updated to reflect all three UW campuses. Methodology to identify faculty doing sustainability-related was the same used for identifying sustainability-related courses.

A full list of departments for all three campuses can be found here:
