One in ten students at the master's or equivalent level is an international student within the OECD, and one in four at the doctoral or equivalent level. International doctoral students tend to choose countries investing substantial resources on research and development (R&D) in tertiary educational institutions. This offers these countries a…

The "Science and Engineering Indicators" series was designed to provide a broad base of quantitative information about U.S. science, engineering, and technology for use by policymakers, researchers, and the general public. "Science and Engineering Indicators 2014" contains analyses of key aspects of the scope, quality, and…

The National Science Board (Board) is required under the National Science Foundation (NSF) Act, 42 U.S.C. (United States Code) Section 1863 (j) (1) to prepare and transmit the biennial "Science and Engineering Indicators" ("SEI") report to the President and to the Congress by January 15 of every even-numbered year. The report…

"Science and Engineering Indicators" (SEI) is first and foremost a volume of record comprising the major high-quality quantitative data on the U.S. and international science and engineering enterprise. SEI is factual and policy neutral. It does not offer policy options, and it does not make policy recommendations. SEI employs a variety…

The National Science Foundation annually collects statistical data from the 15 federal agencies that accounted for an estimated 95 percent of total obligations (for both science/engineering (S/E) and non-S/E activities) to academic institutions and for over 98 percent of all support for S/E research and development at these institutions. This…

This report contains statistical data from the Annual Survey of Scientific and Engineering Expenditures at Universities and Colleges, FY 1982. The data represent science and engineering (SE) expenditures for separately budgeted research and development (R&D). The phrase "separately budgeted R&D expenditures" refers to current…

Presented are statistical data from the Annual Survey of Scientific and Engineering Expenditures at Universities and Colleges, FY 1983. These data represent science and engineering (SE) expenditures for separately budgeted research and development (R&D). The phrase "separately budgeted R&D expenditures" refers to current fund…

This document reports on statistics of research and development (R&D) within the United States according to the geographical distribution for 1997-1998. Science and engineering profiles for 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico are presented. Topics include State Distribution of Sector-Specific R&D, Ten-Year State R&D…

The data in this report were compiled from the National Science Foundation's (NSF's) fiscal year 1992 Survey of Scientific and Engineering Expenditures at Universities and Colleges. They refer to science and engineering (S & E) expenditures for separately budgeted research and development, which include all funds expended for activities…

This publication reports on the changes in federal and non-federal support for academic research and development (R&D) over the past three decades. The report describes major funding sources for overall academic research and development and sources of support by the science and engineering field. (YDS)

This report provides statistical information on the total amount of money allocated for scientific and engineering research, including money for the construction of the facilities wherein such research is conducted, that was received by each educational institution and appropriate nonprofit organization in the United States, by grant, contract, or…

Detailed statistical tables on federal funds for research and development (R&D) are provided in this document. Tables are organized into the following sections: research, development, and R&D plant; R&D--agency, character of work, and performer; total research--agency, performer, and field of science; basic research--agency, performer,…

Detailed statistical tables showing the funding levels of 92 federal agencies for research and development (R&D) are provided in this document.
