The majority of the courses described by the champion questionnaire respondents are stand-alone offerings.

However, many are degree requirements, particularly those where sustainable engineering concepts are inte-

grated into traditional engineering courses.

The majority of the students (91%) taking sustainable engineering courses are upper division and graduate

students. Undergraduate students (65%) dominate the traditional engineering courses; most (44%) are upper

division. Sustainable engineering technology courses are mostly aimed at the graduate and upper division le-

vels (57%), but 38% of these courses have undergraduate students only.
