A brief description of the methodology used to determine the total number of courses offered and to identify sustainability course offerings, including the definitions used and the process for reviewing and/or validating the course inventory :
The data consider courses that are available as of September 2018. Five criteria were selected when looking through the entire course descriptions, and other keywords were searched for in the course descriptions.
All environmental courses (water treatment, soil remediation etc.) are considered as "sustainability" courses. Courses regarding environmental engineering, renewable energy or green technologies were considered as sustainability courses, as they are central to the contribution that engineers can make to sustainability in their professional practice.
When the title of the course clearly states the intent (Sustainable production, Renewable Energy etc.), it is also automatically considered as a "sustainability course".
When less obvious, a more thorough analysis was performed according to the following learning objectives (knowledge - competencies):
-Know sustainable development principles
-Know impacts of engineering on the environment and society
-Know how to use cleaner technologies
-Be able to integrate sustainability tools or criteria when solving engineering -problems
-Be able to involve stakeholders
How were courses with multiple offerings or sections counted for the figures reported above?:
Each course was counted as a single course regardless of the number of offerings or sections
