AC-1: Academic Courses

The Office of Sustainability collaborated with the Presidential Commission on Sustainability (PCS) to compile courses for the inventory. The PCS commissioners were provided with a list of courses submitted in the 2021 STARS report and were asked to share it with the department chairs in their colleges. The faculty/chairs added any additional courses they had personal knowledge about but which may have not been identified during the original catalog keyword search and creation of the inventory. The chairs also distributed an email to faculty in their departments requesting additions of courses that may have been missed. The additions were reviewed and synthesized by the Sustainability Office staff and a final list of courses was generated. With regard to our methodology in counting the total number of courses, please note the following: •Courses that were cross-listed in two departments (e.g. GEOG 450/ESP 450) were treated as one course •Courses that were listed as both undergraduate and graduate level courses (e.g. BIO 433/533) were treated as one course. • Courses that had multiple offerings in the academic year (i.e. fall and spring) or multiple sections in the academic year were also counted as one course. CSULB’s Institutional Research & Analytics staff provided the total number of undergraduate and graduate courses in which students were enrolled (not just courses that were offered and later canceled) for the years in the reporting period.
