A brief description of how the figure above was determined:
We identified sustainability-focused programs through discussions with faculty and a curriculum audit. An audit of learning outcomes for all degree programs was manually completed. This audit identified degree programs that had sustainability-focused learning outcomes. Our audit of all sustainability-focused was cross checked against program requirements to identify programs that require a sustainability-focused course. Utilizing this list of degree programs, the registrar's office completed a search of graduates from these programs. This provided a total number of students graduating from degree programs that required some focus on sustainability.
