NOTES: Because of rounding, detail may not add to total. Seven agencies are required to report data for this section of the survey: the Departments of Agriculture, Defense, Energy, Health and Human Services, and Homeland Security; the National Aeronautics and Space Administration; and the National Science Foundation. Applied research obligations of these seven agencies represented over 94% of total federal applied research obligations to universities and colleges in FY 2014. Only those agencies and subdivisions that had obligations in variables represented by this table appear in the table. See technical table A-2 for additional notes associated with the agencies listed in this table.
