A list or sample of the sustainability learning outcomes associated with degree, diploma or certificate programs (if not included in an inventory above):
Listed below is a sample of the learning outcomes associated with GW's undergraduate sustainability minor degree.
All graduating students completing the requirements for a minor in sustainability will be able to:
1) Apply the concepts of sustainability to issues of human welfare and social equity, the environment, and the economy;
2) Adapt and apply knowledge, theories, and methods learned to analyze sustainability issues and/or practices;
3) Connect and extend basic sustainability concept(s) to a critical problem facing society, using student’s involvement in the issue as the basis for analyzing the challenges and developing and solutions to the problem."

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
We are certain that our calculation is an under-count. Undertaking this calculation is a time consuming and complex task at a university as large and decentralized as GW. To arrive at the 907, we considered only those sustainability courses required for the degree, We have not tried to estimate how many GW students take an elective that has sustainability content.
We have not updated our calculation from our May 2014 STARs submission because of the difficulty this calculation entails.
