A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory:

Faculty record their research interests interest in an online platform. Recently the University created a search tool to find faculty by research area, publication, dissertation, or creative works. This tool was used to audit faculty research participation, searching by keywords from the UN SDGs. Faculty with these key words in their biography, dissertation, or publications were included in this count. Departments were then asked to review this list and make edits.
