Academics

Many faculty members across Kent State’s colleges and schools incorporate sustainability into their courses.  View the course inventory below or check out the following areas, which may be helpful starting points. Another option is to ask your advisor.

Sustainability Course Inventory

The course inventory below includes courses identified by faculty members as being “sustainability courses” or “courses that include sustainability” as defined by the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education.  Note that some courses indicate “some sections” where multiple faculty teach the same course and may or may not include sustainability content.  Please contact the academic department with any questions.

Sustainability courses are courses in which the primary and explicit focus is on sustainability and/or on understanding or solving one or more major sustainability challenge.

A course that includes sustainability is primarily focused on a topic other than sustainability, but incorporates a unit or module on sustainability or a sustainability challenge, includes one or more sustainability-focused activities, or integrates sustainability issues throughout the course.

If you teach a "sustainability course" or a "course that includes sustainability"  or conduct sustainability research that should be added to this page please contact Melanie Knowles.
