This report examines R&D performed by U.S. higher education institutions. It discusses funding by source and S&E field for R&D activities and equipment and provides information on research space. It benchmarks the United States against other nations, and it looks at how academic R&D investments relate to investments in education…

This report examines R&D performed by U.S. higher education institutions. It discusses funding by source and S&E field for R&D activities and equipment and provides information on research space. Academic R&D has grown every year since 1975 and remains focused on basic research. Most of it is performed by a small percentage of U.S.…

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 research sought to determine which factors relate to higher and lower production of papers, citations and impacts (citations divided by papers), because this is one of the AAU Phase I Indicators and to serve as guiding principles as The University of South Florida (USF) works toward becoming an AAU institution. The time period under…

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 research sought to determine whether any measure(s) used in the Carnegie Foundation's classification of Doctoral/Research Universities contribute to a greater degree than other measures to final rank placement. Multilevel Modeling (MLM) was applied to all eight of the Carnegie Foundation's predictor measures using final rank…

Japan's postwar research and development (R&D) efforts have passed through several phases to bring the nation to what may be called "relative parity" with the United States. This document examines the characteristics of Japanese and U.S. R&D efforts. Topics compared include: national science resource patterns; science and…

This report summarizes the results of the National Science Foundation's 1970 survey of scientific activities of independent nonprofit institutions. Data on the employment of scientists, engineers, and technicians, on expenditures, and on the R&D performance in the entire independent nonprofit sector are presented in section 1. Sections 2 and 4…

This report summarizes the results of the National Science Foundation's survey of scientific activities of independent nonprofit organizations in 1966. Information is included on expenditures for research, development, and scientific and technical information activities and on the employment of scientific personnel associated with these…

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)

This study contains analyses of trends in the level of university research and development expenditures in the sciences and engineering from 1964 through 1973. The report is divided into three main sections: (1) current research and development expenditures in the sciences and engineering; (2) capital expenditures for research, development, and…

The National Science Survey of Scientific Activities of Institutions of Higher Education, the subject of this report, is designed to provide national statistics that cast light on these issues. Through analyses of the data, a better picture is purported to be produced on the impact of Federal policy in support of scientific endeavors. The report…

Cites a National Science Foundation (NSF) Report, "Science and Technology: Annual Report to the Congress," for evidence that the United States remains the major technological power in the world. (CP)

Presented is a summary of the Research and Development (R&D) expenditures of state public institutions for the fiscal year 1973. A comparison is presented in graph form of these expenditures for the fiscal years 1964, 1968, and 1973. A review, with comparison figures, is given related to distribution of R&D expenditures of state government…
