Figures may differ from other charts because of differing survey methods. Above totals include obligations for conduct of R&D and R&D facilities support. Figures in parentheses denote national rank among the 100 universities and colleges receiving the most federal R&D funds (rankings reflect conduct of R&D only).
Alaska and U.S. total figures are based on obligations of the 10 largest federal R&D funding agencies, (above five plus DOD, DOT, EPA, Interior and DOE) which account for over 98 percent of all federally funded R&D.
