A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory:
Each year we contact newly hired faculty and ask them to complete a survey, indicating whether their research is related to or focused on sustainability issues. Faculty that respond yes to this survey are entered into our experts database and asked to provide a paragraph describing their relevant research. For the purposes of this STARS submission we are only including faculty because we do not know the total number of staff engaged in research. Once per year we check the status of experts and remove those who have been terminated. We also send an email to all experts once a year to allow them to opt out of being considered an expert if their research focus has changed.
