A brief description of the methodology used to complete the course inventory :
ESF maintains a list of all academic courses offered at the College that meet the AASHE definitions of “Sustainability-Focused” and “Sustainability-Inclusive" courses. This list contains the course title, department (or equivalent), course level, and a brief description tha indicates how sustainability is the focus of the course or integrated into the course. Courses can be one of the two classifications, but not both.
In 2011, a team of staff, students, faculty and administrators conducted a thorough assessment of courses and surveyed faculty, requesting they self-classify their courses. Subsequent surveys of faculty and additional analyses to update the list were conducted from 2012-2014. In 2016, 2019, and 2021, the course list was updated to current AASHE reporting guidelines and ESF course offerings.
