NOTES:

Johns Hopkins University includes Applied Physics Laboratory, with $1,909,094 thousand in total R&D expenditures in FY 2020.

The University of Maryland includes the University of Maryland Baltimore and University of Maryland College Park campuses. In FY 2019, the two campuses began reporting as one research unit to reflect their new strategic partnership. This relationship was codified through the University of Maryland Strategic Partnership Act passed by the Maryland General Assembly in 2016. Prior to FY 2019, both campuses reported separately and were included in these tables as separate institutions.

Prior to FY 2019, Purdue U, Fort Wayne includes Indiana U.-Purdue U., Fort Wayne. Purdue U., Fort Wayne includes all areas of the prior institution except for the health sciences.

. = data were not collected at this level or institution was not eligible to participate for this survey year.

Prior to FY 2016, expenditures for natural resources and conservation, materials science, anthropology, and industrial and manufacturing engineering were not collected separately. R&D expenditures in agricultural sciences decreased in FY 2016 because a number of disciplines previously reported in that field are now reported separately under natural resources and conservation.
