Some Universities Increased Internal Spending on Research—but Still Fell Behind

May 8, 2011

Some colleges raised their internal spending on research by double or more during a decade-long period, which may have helped them win more federal research dollars. But because those federal dollars increased more slowly from 1999 to 2009 than they did at other institutions, these institutions’ rank in federal dollars received in 2009 fell.

Institutions’ names are italicized if they doubled or more their institutionally financed research expenditures from 1999 to 2009 and fell in rank for federally financed research spending.

* Institution has submitted revised figures to the National Science Foundation, but the agency has not yet finalized them.

Note: Percentage changes are adjusted for inflation. The percentages are based on 1999 dollars adjusted to their equivalent value in 2009 dollars. This table omits two institutions that submitted data for 1999 but not 2009 because they had merged with other institutions; they were Allegheny University of the Health Sciences and the Oregon Graduate Institute of Science & Technology.
