A brief description of the methodology used to complete the course inventory :
In order to count the sustainable development courses offered by the university, the keywords from the Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) database were used for judgment (https://ap-unsdsn.org/regional-initiatives/universities -sdgs/). A total of 13,930 courses offered by 91 departments of the university in the 108-109 academic year were analyzed. According to the importance and frequency of keywords related to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of each course, a total of 9,395 courses related to at least one SDG goal were identified (67.4%).
For the purpose of selecting more sustainable development related courses, only those 4,511 courses that meet at least two sustainable development goals were retained for further screening. Then, the courses were reviewed to remove duplicate courses and courses with wrong interpretations of keywords to 3,699 courses. At last, based on the goals and connotations of the courses, 1,131 courses were assigned to the group of sustainable development focused, and the remaining courses were defined as inclusive, with a total of 2,568 courses.
