  • Sustainability-focused courses concentrate on the concept of sustainability, including its social, economic and environmental dimensions, or examine an issue or topic using sustainability as a lens.​​​
  • Sustainability-related courses incorporate sustainability as a distinct component or module or concentrate on a single sustainability principle or issue.
