University of Toronto’s 2024-2025 Experiential Learning (EL) Sustainability Inventory
The Experiential Learning (EL) Sustainability Course Inventory gathers information about all sustainability-related undergraduate courses at the University of Toronto that provide practical, real-world opportunities for students to apply their sustainability knowledge. This EL inventory builds off of U of T’s Sustainability Course Inventory, which contains all sustainability-related courses based on the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Experiential learning opportunities can take many different forms, incorporating disciplinary outcomes, engaging students in authentic experiential practices, providing opportunities for competency development, and are supported by structured critical reflection. Undergraduate students interested in EL are also encouraged to explore research opportunities using the Undergraduate Research Explorer.
Sustainability-focused EL Courses should cover the following criteria:
- It is a credit-bearing academic course with a full or partial EL component.
- It takes place in partnership with an external partner, such as:
- a community, grassroots, nonprofit, or public organization, for example as part of a Community Engaged-Learning (CEL) course, or;
- a for-profit partner, for example as part of an Academic Internship or Co-op/Professional Work Term.
- It responds to partner-led priorities.
- It is reciprocal so both the organizational partner and the students benefit from the engagement.
- Students undertake reflection that connects their community/partner engagement to the learning outcomes of the initiative.
- It works towards one or more of the sixteen (SDGs).
The 2024-25 Sustainability EL course inventory includes 111 courses. The purpose of this inventory is to increase the visibility of sustainability courses that foster community engagement and partnerships.
In the 2024-25 Sustainability Undergraduate Course Inventory, the following ten EL keywords were used to filter for potential EL courses: placement, community engag*/community-engag*, experiential, internship, partner, client, service learning/service-learning, capstone project, office, professional. The search results were then manually reviewed for quality assurance by CECCS. Any output deemed irrelevant to EL based on the course description has been removed. If you are an instructor at the University of Toronto and think an EL course should be included or removed from this inventory, please contact kristy.bard@utoronto.ca.

| ENV461H1 | The U of T Campus as a Living Lab of Sustainability | Sustainability is a growing priority for universities all over the world. Many are developing strong operational sustainability goals and targets, and are giving increasing emphasis to teaching and research on sustainability issues. Yet few have committed at the executive level to integrating academic and operational sustainability in the context of treating their campus as a living laboratory of sustainable practice, research and teaching. Arguably, it is such living lab approaches that offer the largest potential for universities to play a significant role in the sustainability transition. This course will explore and apply the living lab concept, in the context of operational sustainability at the University of Toronto. We will begin by looking at the literature on university sustainability and the living lab concept. The bulk of the course will involve undertaking an applied research project on some aspect of campus sustainability, working in close partnership with operational staff at the University of Toronto. Students will develop the skills needed to work across disciplines and fields of study, and with non-academic partners. This course will put students to work on operational sustainability projects identified by the staff working in or with the Sustainability Office at the University of Toronto. Students will be organized into groups, each of which will be assigned one project, to be overseen by one or more U of T staff members. The bulk of the course will consist of regular meetings with the staff "clients", with instructors, and in small groups to undertake a group project. Each group will produce a mid-term and final report, and give a mid-term and final presentation. Each student will also submit two 360 reviews of the group process. A crucial aspect of this course is the ability of students to work collaboratively together in a group environment, and to work effectively with a university staff person acting as a "client" for their work. Students will be provided with a Handbook outlining information on working in groups and the focus of the class in the second week will be on this issue. The first 360 peer review will serve to provide information on how well each group is working. Students are encouraged to discuss and resolve group process issues in the weekly group meetings, and in their regular meetings with the instructor and TA. The second 360 review will occur at the end of the term. The results of the two 360 reviews will be used, where appropriate, to adjust individual marks from the group averages. | Arts and Science, Faculty of | SDG11, SDG4, SDG8, SDG9, SDG12, SDG13 | partner, client, office |
