The relationship between the government and universities conducting federally sponsored research is under a strain. University researchers dread nit-picking. Government auditors claim poor management and questionable spending practices by university researchers. (Author/RE)

Presents statistics for the distribution of research and development funds and manpower in industry, universities and colleges, other nonprofit organizations, and the Federal government. (MLH)

Illustrates statistical data on spending money for research and development in chemistry and chemical engineering. The data is presented by overview, federal government, industry, universities and colleges, and international. Provides many tables and graphs. (YP)

Presents and analyzes data on sources of research and development (R&D) funds; R&D spending by government agencies; how industry apportions its R&D outlays; spending by individual chemical companies; manpower in industrial R&D; sources/uses of academic R&D funds; largest spenders on R&D; and demographic trends. (JN)

Presents a series of tables outlining college and university expenditures for research and development (R&D) over the last 10 years. Tables include sources of university R&D funds, character and fields of R&D spending, areas of federally financed R&D, and others. (GS)

Compares federal research and development funding for 1976 through 1978 in terms of agency breakdown and type of research. (MLH)

Presents a series of tables outlining federal obligations for research and development (R&D) for 1980 and compares these with preceeding years through 1976. Tables include comparisons of obligations among federal agencies, among scientific disciplines, between basic research and applied research, and others. (GS)

Analyzes current trends in national research and development (R&D) spending. Presents data on the percent of federal v nonfederal monies; dollar amounts committed by the federal government, industry, universities and nonprofit institutions; performers of R&D; dollar amounts adjusted for inflation; and numbers of employed scientists and engineers.…

This report is the Chemical and Engineering News' annual compilation of data on research and development. Sections include overview, federal government, industrial, and university data. Tables and graphs are used to present most of the information. (YP)
