Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
It should be noted that all sustainability courses, when spaces are permitted, are offered as an elective to all students of the campus regardless of their affiliated departments and majors / degrees. There are also university-wide offered courses such as "Environment Today" offered each semester. An inventory of courses related to and focused on sustainability and environment can be found at the Carnegie Mellon University's “Environment at CMU” website. The course lists are updated each semester (in time for registration) to assist students who are seeking courses in environment and sustainability.
