A brief description of the methodology the institution followed to complete the research inventory (including the types of faculty and staff included as researchers):
Faculty research is recognized at annual university events. As part of these events, a comprehensive list of all research published that year is created. The lists for 2016, 2017, and 2018 were manually reviewed to identify sustainability research. In addition, the University's scholarship repository was manually reviewed for sustainability research. Finally, faculty were invited to share if they had produced any sustainability research during 2016-2018. Publications that involved more than one University of Richmond faculty were counted separately for each faculty.
