A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the inventory:
Our sustainability focused/related course inventory examines the courses offered at Texas A&M University – College Station for a one year period from Fall 2010 through Summer 2011. The data is restricted to undergraduate classes offered during that timeframe. All undergraduate classes are required to submit an electronic copy of their syllabi for University record each semester; graduate classes are exempt from this protocol. Syllabi are mainly submitted in PDF format, but are occasionally submitted as a website. We used the combined syllabi and websites to create our course inventory. A comprehensive explanation of our database creation, review, and methodologies can be found at http://sustainability.tamu.edu/academics.aspx.
