Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
It should be noted that all sustainability courses, when spaces are permitted, are offered as an elective to all students of the campus regardless of their affiliated departments and majors / degrees. There are also university-wide offered courses such as "Materials, Energy, and Environment" or "Environment Today: Biodiversity and Environmental Justice" offered each semester.
The referred sustainability course inventory can be found at the Carnegie Mellon University's Environmental Education website. It should be noted, however, that the website has not been updated since 2009. Therefore, another course inventory had been separately created in a Microsoft Excel document and attached to reflect the recent changes among the University's course offerings in year 2010 (spring and fall semesters).
