- this report has been prepared with support from the National Science Foundation -
This table identifies the academic institutions in the top 100, ranked according to R&D expenditures in fiscal year 2002.
Academic institutions in the top 100, based on R&D expenditures in fiscal year 2002, are derived from the National Science Foundation (NSF) report, Academic Research and Development Expenditures, Fiscal Year 2002, Table 32. This NSF report, based on NSF's fiscal year 2002 Survey of Research and Development Expenditures at Universities and Colleges, depicts science and engineering expenditures for separately budgeted research and development at academic institutions:
The term 'separately budgeted R&D expenditures' includes all funds expended for activities specifically organized to produce research outcomes and commissioned by an agency either external to the institution or separately budgeted by an organizational unit within the institution. 'Expenditures' are funds actually spent by an institution during its fiscal year.
Further information regarding the above-noted survey and report is available from NSF.
The names of academic institutions in the NSF report are shown in the following table. The NSF ranking includes specific campuses of statewide systems, such as the University of California at San Francisco (U CA San Francisco), which is ranked 6th in R&D expenditures in 2002. However, it is not always possible to identify the patents associated with a specific campus; frequently, the name of a larger institution or statewide system-- not a specific campus-- appears as the assignee name on a U.S. patent. For example, a patent assigned to the University of California, may or may not be associated with the San Francisco campus. For some academic institutions in the NSF top 100, only patent counts for broader institutions or statewide systems can be provided.
The table shows the assignee names on U.S. patents that most closely correspond to the academic institutions in the NSF top 100. In the PTMD report, U.S. Colleges and Universities-- Utility Patent Grants 1969-2003, no attempt is made to provide patent counts for specific campuses or research facilities. Where such counts do appear, those figures should not be considered to be the total patent count for those campuses or research facilities.
