Introduction
The task of building and sustaining an American research university challenges every member of the institution’s extended community. Progress in this permanent quest requires enthusiasm, commitment, talent, and resources, but it also requires reliable comparative data. The task for universities is to improve, not only measured by what they did last year or the year before, but also in comparison to what their counterparts and competitors at other universities have accomplished. Reference points for comparative success serve the utilitarian purpose of measuring progress. The Top American Research Universities annual report charts the comparative performance of institutions, reflecting our conviction that research university success comes from the effective investment in and management of individual institutions. American universities exist in many different bureaucratic arrangements, and public universities in particular often form parts of complex statewide system structures. Nonetheless, the key decisions about faculty and students that produce successful research universities take place primarily at the campus level. For that reason, this publication focuses on the performance of individual campuses, not of systems, and adjusts the data to reflect the performance of each campus within a system. The Top American Research Universities also presents a categorization of research universities into groups based on their performance on nine measures, as described in the text and in the introduction to the tables. Institutions in the top group rank among the top 25 on all nine of the measures; in the second group they rank in the top 25 on eight measures; and so on. This method does not produce a single ranked list, but instead it reflects our observation that the difference separating these top universities is not sufficiently great to justify making a single, rank-ordered list. We think that the very best universities compete at top levels on most everything they do. Others compete well on some measures but not as well on others. TheCenter groups identify clusters of institutions with roughly comparable performance on a variety of measures. In this year’s report, we have extended our coverage to include not only the universities that compete among the top 25, but also those that compete in the range 26–50 on at least one of the nine measures. In this edition, we highlight the national competition among universities in the Top American Research University tables, although we also include the tables for the Top Private and Top Public institutions separately, as in the previous report. This focus on the national rankings recognizes that the competition for faculty and students is primarily a single competition in which both public and private universities participate, regardless of their control or ownership. A university’s private or public ownership (or control) influences some institutional characteristics that bear on its competitiveness within the national context, rather than creating independent competitive contexts. In addition to the expanded tables, this edition of The Top American Research Universities also includes data The task for universities for a variety of institutional characteristics that may be is to improve, not only of interest to many observers. We include information measured by what they on those universities that did last year, but also in we define as major research universities with over comparison with their $20 million in federal research expenditures, and competitors. we include data on the top 200 institutions for the measures used in constructing our categories. Each university, however, exists within a unique context and has different interests in data such as these. For this reason, TheCenter provides all of the data in this publication as well as additional tables of related information on its website [http://thecenter.ufl.edu] in two formats. This publication, including the tables, appears as a .pdf file, available for downloading and printing. All of the published data, as well as some additional tables, appear on the website in Microsoft Excel format suitable for downloading and additional analysis. This gives others the opportunity to analyze the data for their own purposes. The website also includes a variety of other information including an extensive bibliography.

In the text of The Top American Research Universities, we offer a description of a model for the research university, and we use the data as the basis for the discussion of a variety of issues, especially the patterns of change in federal research expenditures over the past decade. We have discovered that the audience for these materials is much wider than we had anticipated, including academic experts, students, public policy administrators, legislators, trustees, alumni, and international scholars and observers. Some of our comments, reflecting the work of many scholars of American higher education, will appear obvious to the experts, although less familiar to those outside the university. In developing this second edition of The Top American Research Universities, we benefited greatly from many suggestions from our colleagues, but

special thanks go to the members of our Advisory Board, whom we list on page 147. Their observations, suggestions, and critique have helped us immeasurably. The work reflected in this publication draws on the exceptional support of Ms. Lynne Collis, who manages TheCenter’s administrative services. Without her expertise, dedication, and initiative, this publication would not have appeared. The authors also thank Mr. Gregory A. Harris for his excellent contributions to this project and Ms. Anney Doucette for her careful work with many aspects of the data collection and verification. The Top American Research Universities is a project made possible through the generosity of Mr. Lewis M. Schott in establishing The Lombardi Program on Measuring University Performance. The authors greatly appreciate his confidence and support.

The American Research University: A Perspective
American Higher Education and the Research University
Any effort to summarize American higher education struggles with the large variety of missions, structures, and characteristics represented by the over 4,700 institutions offering some form of postsecondary education. Community colleges, trade schools, denominational colleges, liberal arts institutions, small and large state colleges and universities, elite private colleges and universities, and medical institutions all inhabit overlapping parts of the same educational space. This diversity of institutions represents one of the great strengths of American post-secondary schooling. Institutions exist to serve virtually any student, whatever their preferences, needs, values, and abilities. The system lacks formal, structural elegance, but it more than compensates with its comprehensive scope and its remarkable resilience and dynamism. This lack of formal structure poses a major challenge for those who would analyze, categorize, and evaluate these institutions, because few fit into neat categories suitable for data collection and comparative analysis. Institutions as different as community colleges, research universities, and elite liberal arts colleges teach students a relatively standardized curriculum for the first two years. All undergraduate institutions, from large comprehensive state-supported universities to small privately endowed sectarian colleges, compete for college-bound high school graduates. Although these colleges and universities teach students within the context of a four-year undergraduate curriculum leading to a bachelor’s degree, they nonetheless differ substantially in size, characteristics of student populations, and overall institutional mission. Nationally competitive research takes place at approximately the same scale whether in public institutions with as many as 50,000 students or in small private universities with less than 1,000. No effort to understand these institutions on a single scale can hope to succeed. The overlapping missions, diverse governance mechanisms, and multiple sources of funding tend to obscure the highly competitive behavior of American higher education. Institutions compete with each other for funding, students, faculty, and recognition. The nature of this competition, more than the specific characteristics of the institutions themselves, defines groups of institutions: liberal arts colleges compete primarily with other liberal arts colleges, comprehensive state institutions compete with others like themselves, research institutions compete with other research universities. Institutions also compete across categories, not only within them. Community colleges and comprehensive state universities often compete for the same students within a defined geographic area. All public institutions in a given state compete with each other for tax-based support. Prestigious public and private universities compete with small elite liberal arts colleges for top students. Some forms of competition, however, define institutions sufficiently to create a category of analytical interest. Research provides a defining characteristic for a The overlapping missions, set of institutions whose performance in many areas diverse governance, and of academic life sets the multiple sources of standards for most of American higher education. funding tend to obscure The definition of a research university for the the highly competitive purposes of this report behavior of American involves two primary characteristics. higher education. • First, these universities compete successfully for federal research funds. Major research institutions spend at least $20 million a year from these sources, while other research institutions spend less. • Second, research universities are regionally accredited institutions whose academic programs award accredited academic degrees. The following figures provide a perspective on this group of institutions. Of the 1,950 non-

those institutions with over $20 million in federal research expenditures, as in the previous Top American Research Universities report issued in 2000. The highly evolved and complex American research universities in this top category share many things in common, but they differ significantly in size, structure, organization, and finance. Some have student populations as large as 30,000 to 50,000, while others have fewer than 1,000 students. Some have a majority of their students in undergraduate programs, others have a majority of graduate and professional students, and a few have no undergraduates at all. Research universities operate with significantly different formal organizational structures. Some operate as private, not-for-profit corporations and display clearly defined organizations governed by

self-perpetuating boards. Others operate as public entities under state constitutional or legislative provision with ownership or control assigned to boards of trustees or regents. These boards are selected, appointed, or elected in accord with differing criteria. Some public research universities may share a governing board with other institutions, only some of which may emphasize research. Public research universities also have complex relationships that link them directly to state legislatures and statewide coordinating commissions. On occasion, they have both local and statewide governing boards. These research universities do many things in addition to research, further complicating an analysis of their research performance. As educational institutions, research universities can sustain any number of academic specialties, support a wide array of professional schools, engage in extensive off-campus educational activities in continuing professional education, and perform services for public and private constituencies. Individual universities combine these functions in many different ways, ensuring that no two universities will have identical missions. For all of their complexity, American research universities serve as primary institutions for advancing knowledge in virtually all fields of human activity, from the arts and humanities through the social and behavioral sciences and from the professions to the mathematical, physical, and biological sciences. No university cultivates research in all areas of human inquiry, but there is at least one university with a research program in almost every area of knowledge. The strength of the American research university results from a combination of reinforcing elements. For most institutions, the standard mission includes the education of undergraduate students to become useful and productive citizens in what are traditionally four- or five-year programs; the preparation of graduates in the professions of education, law, medicine, business, engineering, or journalism; and the training of advanced students in Ph.D. programs in a number of specialized fields. Research universities in particular emphasize intensive and extensive research programs in many academic and professional areas. Local, state, and national agencies,

recognizing the high social and economic value of these institutions, provide significant tax-based assistance to private and public universities through research grants, facilities funding, financial aid for students at all levels. In return, the research university generally implements its obligation to the public by producing educated and useful citizens, transferring academic research results into products and services that enhance national prosperity and defense, and engaging the university in a wide range of public service work. Although there is great variation in the methods and techniques, in the mix and balance, and in the success of American research universities in delivering this combination of functions, almost every institution participates in most aspects of this combined activity.

Quality Engines: The American Research University Prototype
Even though these institutions demonstrate a bewildering variety in the details of their organization, all of them express a common research university prototype. This prototype models the behavior American research of research universities as organizations, even if, like universities serve as all synthetic constructs, it does not represent the operaprimary institutions tions of any particular instifor advancing knowledge tution in detail. The model presented here in virtually all fields views research universities as organizations with two of human activity. related but relatively independent structures. • The first is an academic core, composed of a group of faculty guilds that have primary responsibility for the academic content and quality of the enterprise. • The second is an administrative shell, responsible for the acquisition and distribution of resources and for the management of the enterprises that support the faculty guilds. The Academic Core: Faculty guilds are the most important part of the university because they define

and create the university’s academic substance. The guilds enable the university’s many other functions related to teaching and research. Disciplinary considerations define guilds such as chemistry, history, physics, psychology, philosophy, medicine, and law. Moreover, within the university, each Faculty guilds are the faculty guild serves as the local branch of a national most important part guild of the same specialty. For example, all of the profesof the university sors in a university history because they define the department belong to the same national guild, even university’s academic though the local university employs them. The national substance and maintain guild establishes the intellectual standards for their work; its quality. the local university deals with their employment and work assignments. The same holds true for chemists, psychologists, and the members of other guilds. Each guild defines itself in terms of the intellectual methodology that its members apply to their field of study. Historians, for example, have a methodology for the use of historical evidence in the development of explanations about past events. The guild’s definition of standards based on these methods and the evaluation of quality based on the standards are what define the guild’s responsibility. Members of the guild must meet these academic and methodological standards, or the guild will not recognize the validity of their work. As has been the case for all guilds since medieval times, the methodological standards guarantee that the members’ products meet guild criteria. If a guild-certified historian writes a biography of Simón Bolívar, for example, we can have confidence that the interpretation presented uses documents and evidence in accord with the history guild’s standards of accuracy and reliability. The guild does not guarantee the correctness of the resulting interpretation, only that the guild-certified historian used appropriate methodology properly in ways that permit other expert members of the guild to review and validate that work.

The same is true in science, which perhaps offers a better illustration. Scientists have precise methodologies, both for doing their work and for validating its results. When physicists, for example, present the results of their work, most people lack the expertise to evaluate the scientific validity of the process used to arrive at the announced result. Instead, the public relies on a validation by the physics guild before accepting the result as a reliable scientific finding. Each guild has its own process for validating the work done by its members and for reviewing results presented by aspirants for membership or advancement in the guild. All guilds, however, rely on a variation of the peer review system that mobilizes the talents of expert guild members to validate the work of other guild members. This process often involves experts replicating the experiments and a peer review of results before presentation to the public through publication. Whatever the process, however, the guild sets and enforces the standards for the field to ensure the quality of guild-certified results. The analytical methodology, more than the subject matter studied, distinguishes one guild from another. For example, although historians and sociologists study similar phenomena (revolution, poverty, social change), they employ significantly different methodologies, and these differences separate the sociologists’ guild from the historians’ guild. The expanding range of knowledge constantly produces new information and suggests new explanations. These, in turn, often require new methodologies. Over time, new guilds emerge with definable methodologies that serve to advance understanding. In other cases, efforts to create new guilds do not succeed because no coherent, intellectually sound, and distinct methodology emerges. The guild does not pass judgment primarily on whether a scholar’s idea is right or wrong, but rather it ensures that scholarly ideas receive rigorous analysis and proof regardless of the political or personal interests that may surround them. Scientists may believe that they have found the key to eternal life, but public acceptance of this result requires

validation by other members of the appropriate science guilds through a critical review according to applicable methodological standards. The guilds also define the university’s undergraduate curriculum in a negotiated conversation with other guilds. This negotiation establishes the content and delivery of knowledge contained in the traditional frame of four- or five-year undergraduate degree programs. Each component of this degree reflects guild-certified knowledge. Doctoral and other advanced degree programs belong exclusively to the guilds. Finally, the guild controls the acquisition, promotion, tenure, and retention of faculty. Although other actors in the university (administrators, union officials, students, and others) influence this process in various ways, the guild holds primary responsibility for the quality of the faculty. Because their own members hire and retain their successors, guilds behave as self-replicating organizations. If the guilds replicate themselves at the same quality level, the university overall will maintain its current level of quality. If they replace themselves at a lower level, the university declines, and if they hire their replacements at a higher level of quality, the university improves. Research universities pay close attention to guild management of faculty talent, because they know that the university’s quality and productivity depend on the faculty. A diagram of the core structure of the model research university would show a number of guilds, each separate from the others, linked by their common participation in the instructional enterprise and by their common concern for the support and promotion of research. They would appear as separate entities because the members of one guild cannot generally participate in the work of another except as guests or in jointly owned interdisciplinary projects. Members of one guild may not normally transfer their academic standing directly to another guild without a complete review of their qualifications by the other guild. The guilds would also appear as separate entities to emphasize that they belong intellectually more to their national guild than to their local university. This feature of guild behavior requires some

discussion. The national guild sets the same methodological standards for determining the quality and reliability of its products everywhere. Local guilds apply these same methodological standards, whether they operate in New York or Texas, Minnesota or California. However, the level of productivity and quality required for membership by each local guild will vary from university to university. In major research universities, as an example, the local history guilds will require new members to possess not only a Ph.D. with a dissertation completed and approved according to the standards of the guild, but also a record of publication in significant peer-reviewed journals and the promise of a major scholarly book. For permanent status within The university’s these high-quality local guilds, historians will academic standing is the publish at least two major peer-reviewed books. At aggregate result of the a comprehensive state universuccess of the guilds in sity, the level of research quality and productivity the recruitment and expected by the local history guild for permanent status retention of faculty. will include perhaps only the completion of a Ph.D. and the publication of one or two peer-reviewed articles. A university’s quality and competitiveness depend on the quality and competitiveness of its faculty, and the local guild sets the level of performance for new and continuing faculty members. The university’s academic standing, then, is the aggregate result of the success of each of these local guilds in the recruitment and retention of faculty. This model of guild behavior applies to competitive research universities and sets the standards for almost all other colleges and universities. The Administrative Shell: The second structure within the American research university is the administrative shell. Most observers see the shell when they first encounter the university. The shell contains a traditional corporate structure: hierarchical and orderly, with a chain of command as well as the other accouterments of modern corporate America. It provides the formal, legal governance

mechanism of the university, including a board of trustees or regents, a president, and vice presidents, deans, other administrators, and members of faculty senates who carry out corporate line and staff functions on behalf of the university and manage governance as well as administrative issues. To most people, this is the university’s management. In one sense, this is true. The board owns the university. The president is legally responsible for the institution’s management. The vice The criteria for presidents and deans report through an administrative distributing money create hierarchy. The faculty senate approves new degrees and much stronger incentives curricular changes. for guild behavior than At the same time, the people in the shell do not do strategic plans or actually do the work that makes the university valuable. mission statements. That work takes place primarily in the guilds or under guild supervision. The shell mobilizes and distributes resources that support the work of the guilds, and it protects the guilds from harmful external forces. The shell manages the interactions between guilds. Most importantly, the shell manages the university’s money and creates the incentives that motivate guild behavior. Participants in the administrative shell typically demonstrate a fondness for public displays of institutional homogeneity, as expressed in the form of mission statements, strategic plans, and the like. These high-minded products generally have minor impact on the guilds and their work — unless the shell administrators match these plans with the incentives created by the distribution of money. The criteria for distributing money create much stronger incentives for guild behavior than do strategic plans and mission statements articulated by institutional leaders. Deans and department chairs occupy a special intermediate role between the functions of the shell and those of the core guilds. While deans, and chairs to a somewhat lesser extent, serve as administrative officers in the formal organization of the university, they serve more as guild representatives to the shell

than as administrative managers of the core. Deans receive their appointments from vice presidents and presidents, and they recognize their responsibility to these shell officers. Deans also know that their success depends on their ability to earn and retain the respect and support of their fellow guild members and to successfully represent guild interests in the competition for resources managed by the shell organization. Department and program chairs respond even more closely to the interests of their guild colleagues than do deans. We might think of deans and chairs as “guild masters,” for they manage the operation of the guilds both on behalf of the guild members and on behalf of the shell organization. In this model, it is important to focus on institutional purpose. Some might say that the research university produces students, research products, economic development, and public service. While the university does produce these things, the delivery of goods and services to society is actually a secondary benefit from the university’s primary pursuit of internal quality, as represented by research and students. Quality Engines: Research universities, in our view, exist to accumulate the highest level and the greatest amount of internal academic quality possible. The goal is to gather inside the university the most research-productive faculty, the brightest students, and the highest-quality academic and cultural environment achievable. Although the research university delivers a wide variety of products to external constituencies, such as graduates, technology, economic development, and public service, its primary focus is on the creation of internal quality. This is why we call research universities “quality engines.” In pursuing the goal of maximum internal quality, the research university will almost automatically graduate its students, promote economic development, and serve the public interest. However, the production of these goods and services does not drive university success, although it may motivate others to help the institution to succeed. The model clearly illustrates a relationship between the academic core of guilds and the university’s shell. The shell’s primary responsibility is to

Quality Engines

find the money needed to compete effectively for the best faculty (including all of the subsidies for their research) and for the best students (including all of the amenities and academic and educational enhancements that attract them). The shell organizes structures and systems to raise private endowments and gifts, to lobby for public funds, to compete for federal dollars, to seek foundation revenue, and to create a hospitable and supportive academic and cultural environment. The shell raises this money and creates this environment so that the guilds succeed in recruiting and retaining quality faculty, in subsidizing research, and in promoting similar activities that create internal quality. Shell participants often take a more direct role in the recruitment and retention of undergraduate students, in whom the guild has less of a direct interest. The interactions between the guilds and the shell, and also between the shell and the external environment, are much more complex and more closely interrelated than presented here. Nonetheless, the model of quality engines focuses our attention on the research university’s revenue-seeking behavior in support of the guild’s success and by extension the institution’s success in the competition for quality. The model sees the university as an enterprise that is its own primary customer. On the surface, this appears a bit contradictory, since the revenue that supports the university comes from outside the institution and the institution organizes itself to capture relentlessly as much revenue from all of these sources as possible. Most observers would assume that the university sells a product or service directly to those who provide it with money. While the university does provide value to those who pay, the process that it uses to provide the value and the mechanisms for payment dilute much of the relationship between buyer and seller that characterizes transactions in the for-profit world. For example, research universities sell the talent of their research faculty and staff to the federal government to do research that is in the national interest. At the same time, universities also purchase access to (and a competitive advantage in) the federal

competition for grants through subsidies of research facilities and talent. The universities compete against each other for federal grants, but they also invest their internal funds heavily for the opportunity to compete.

In this view, the university maximizes its revenue from all sources to purchase quality research, quality students, quality faculty, and a quality academic environment. It then uses the existence of this quality environment to attract additional external investors who buy access to the environment and contribute to its creation rather than purchasing ownership of any particular university product. The goal of research universities, then, is to accumulate the highest level and the largest amount of quality it can through the competitive purchase of scarce quality elements. Whether the institution is an elite private institution with a $14 billion endowment and $266 million of federally funded research or a public institution just barely over the $20 million level of federal research with an endowment of only $15 million, they behave in remarkably similar ways. The details of the revenue-seeking behavior of individual universities vary depending on circumstances, history, opportunities, and private or public control. TheCenter’s annual reports track the performance of research universities as they pursue the maximum accumulation of research and undergraduate student quality.

The Competitive Context for Research Universities
The research university’s essential elements are scarce. Universities and their people live in an environment of competition for everything: outstanding students, good grades, faculty positions, promotion and tenure, publication opportunities, grants, research and teaching space, and resources to support academic specialties are a few examples. The most important competition for faculty begins with the hiring process, when one open position attracts many applicants but the applicant pool contains only a few top candidates. Potential faculty members compete with each other to appear in the top group of aspiring research faculty, and universities compete with each other to purchase the services of the individuals in the top group. Availability of Research and Teaching Talent: The discussion of the process for recruiting, promoting, tenuring, and retaining faculty is long, and we will not engage it fully here. For our purposes in charting the performance of research universities, a critical distinction about this competition for the best faculty requires emphasis. Research university competition for faculty is about research, not about teaching. Much confusion and rhetoric attaches to this view, as observers of university life argue about the relative merits of teachResearch talent and ing and research. For our purposes, this argument is productivity are much beside the point. The issue less available and much is not whether teaching or research has more intrinsic less predictable than is value, but whether teaching talent is more plentiful teaching talent. than research talent. Research talent and productivity is much less available and much less predictable than teaching talent, and this difference determines the university’s focus on research rather than teaching in the acquisition and management of faculty. Although teaching requires skill, knowledge, creativity, and commitment, this is not the issue. The issue is that almost all faculty with the basic credentials for a research university appointment

(a Ph.D. or its equivalent and a reasonable record of scholarly accomplishment) will teach well. The likelihood is high that a university, in hiring promising research faculty members, will also acquire excellent teachers. Like teaching, research also requires skill, knowledge, creativity, and commitment, but research talent is scarce. The guilds cannot predict with high levels of confidence which of the most promising research graduates of the best doctoral programs in the country will sustain a high level of nationally competitive research productivity over a working career. By selecting and reviewing credentials carefully, the guild can improve its chances of hiring and retaining people who will indeed perform as researchers throughout their careers, but the risk nonetheless remains substantial. As time goes on, even with the most careful screening, the proportion of a cohort of promising faculty who remain productive in research will decline. A few will not produce nationally competitive research at all; many will produce well for six to eight years and then cease to compete at national levels. Others will create sustained and productive research programs and will maintain their vitality and competitiveness over a career of thirty or more years. By contrast, in any given cohort of faculty hired by a research university, all but a very few will teach effectively, and many will teach superbly for the thirty or more years of their careers. From a management perspective, this creates a problem, because the labor force required for universities to succeed in the national research competition is relatively inflexible. Once the long six-year period of probation ends, faculty become permanent university employees. Tenure confers this security of employment and is the structure that creates an inflexible labor force, but it is also a requirement for a successful university research enterprise. The topic of tenure is complex and has an extensive and often polemical literature. Suffice it to say here that university research that extends human knowledge does not prosper where the investigator’s livelihood is dependent on evaluations of short-term success. The pursuit of short-term research results often leads people to work on the things they already

Page 12

The Competitive Context

know well rather than on the things they do not know. The pursuit of new knowledge entails a substantial risk of being wrong (scholars can only be right all of the time if they already know the answers to the questions they ask). The employment security of tenure is a necessary requirement to encourage this risky exploration of the unknown, and it represents a cost in the university’s support of research. Universities compete with each other by paying a premium in the faculty marketplace for successful research faculty at various stages in their careers because such individuals are scarce. Universities pay almost no premium for successful teaching faculty at any stage in their careers because such individuals are abundant. Indeed, the emergence of a lively market in inexpensive adjunct and part-time teaching talent indicates a negative premium for teaching experience. The limited availability of research talent and the competition to acquire this talent explain why the conversation about mobilizing resources for institutional quality focuses primarily on the competition for and support of research faculty. Supporting Research Competition: This model of research universities as quality engines highlights the close relationship between competitive success and money. Money makes it possible for the institutions to compete for the scarce talent of research faculty and to support all of the elements of plant, equipment, personnel, and university environment that they require. University people see themselves as pursuing a higher mission and do not like to think of themselves as part of enterprises that generate and spend revenue. Yet in no university does the higher mission prosper without the investment of money in people, plant, and equipment. The centrality of money to this competition affects every single program, whether it is fine arts and music or physics and chemistry. The art department needs studio space and materials; the music school needs rehearsal space, instruments, and recording equipment. The physics and chemistry departments require laboratory space and scientific instruments. The best faculty in every guild want

nationally competitive salaries, and the best students want nationally competitive undergraduate programs and financial aid packages. The quality engine’s success depends in the first instance on its ability to generate money. All things being equal, the more money the university can invest effectively in the competition for quality, the better it will become. Research university shells, as predicted by our model, organize the mechanisms for maximizing revenue. The competition among All things being equal, universities for people and resources is fierce. If a the more money the research project will take university can invest five years to develop, the university that starts first effectively in the will finish first. The university that gets the three competition for quality, best faculty in the world in the better it will become. a particular field will have a competitive edge. While research faculty move from institution to institution for higher salaries and better research support, they do not move every year. If the faculty with the critical talent needed for a research project moved last year, they will not likely move this year. The advantage in the competition goes to those who have the money today to buy the services of talented people and the equipment and resources needed. What matters most for the research university is not its total assets or the aggregate value of its endowment, buildings, and equipment. Rather, what matters most is the cash generated by these assets and other activities, which the university can immediately spend to compete. Competitive university research operates at the outside edges of human knowledge, and small differences in talent and ability often make big differences in research success. If a university fails to recruit the top quantum physicists for its project, it will find itself disadvantaged in competing against the university that has those top physicists. The disadvantage will rapidly become serious as the competing university moves quickly ahead in the process of discovery.

Page 13

Research is also a high-risk business, and institutions find it difficult to predict exactly which research investment will produce the most competitive result in the medium term of five to ten years. The larger the cash flow that a university can mobilize to invest in different research initiatives, the greater the chance that it will have successful results, and the better its ability to withstand failures. Individual scientific research programs may have a lifespan of ten years, and in that time the instituUniversities frequently tion will invest many millions from its own resources (in use decision mechanisms addition to whatever it can that rely primarily on win in grants and external support) for salaries, space, traditions, politics, or equipment, and support personnel. If it spends personal preferences that its revenue well, the university will see returns on this limit the effective use of investment in the form of rational criteria. discoveries, publications, grants, contracts, and scholarly reputation. If it invests ineffectively, it will see its quality decline despite that investment. Universities encounter significant challenges in managing the institution’s investment choices. Universities and their faculty engage in many activities, produce many things, and have multiple constituencies. Every activity can benefit from the investment of additional dollars, and all activities have internal and external support groups that argue for additional investment in their preferred activity. Almost all of these activities reflect quality programs. As the model would predict, the process for making investment decisions in a university is complex. This is because the guilds have their own interests centered on guild advancement, and the shell often lacks the technical and political support to make effective investment choices. Deans and chairs represent not the interests of the university but those of the guilds or collections of guilds under their administration. Pressures from both the academic core and the external constituencies of revenue

providers, combined with often remarkably poor management data, inhibit the effective use of resources to build competitive quality. Universities frequently use decision mechanisms that reflect the complicated relationships of their many constituencies and that rely primarily on traditions, politics, or personal preferences. These common mechanisms limit the effective use of the rational criteria that will guide the institution to identify the optimal choice for acquiring internal quality. When a university has large amounts of discretionary revenue, it can often afford ineffective systems and nonetheless remain competitive. However, universities with fewer resources will find that these ineffective decision methods inhibit their efforts to improve. Decisions about spending money have a disproportionate impact on research because research is a money-losing proposition with significant multiplier effects. Universities must generate as much revenue as possible so that they can buy as much quality research as possible. Each investment of internal funds creates the opportunity to acquire additional external funds in support of research. Good investments create large multipliers and research grows rapidly; poor investments have small multipliers and produce much slower growth. Research, even though it can serve as a multiplier, creates an expense, not a surplus. Although externally funded grants and contracts are large items in any research university’s revenue stream, they represent the multiplier effect of the additional university funds that these projects always require to pay their full cost. Some of these required payments from internal resources appear explicitly: for example, underpayment for indirect costs is a characteristic of federal, state, and especially foundation sponsored projects. Although the effective recovery of indirect costs varies from institution to institution, no university recovers the full audited costs of research. The difference between the audited and the reimbursed expenses is a cost to the university of the successful competition for grant-funded research projects. Universities subsidize research in many other ways. Released time from teaching for faculty who

Page 14

The Competitive Context

do research in the humanities, social sciences, arts, and professions (fields with fewer substantial external grants) is a cost of research for the university. Funded grants from federal and other agencies often require an explicit university payment from internal funds, called “cost sharing,” as a condition for acquiring the grant. The competition for quality human resources impels universities to fund endowed positions for research faculty, the cost of which they rarely charge in full to research grants. Institutions also subsidize graduate students through stipends both to attract the quality research faculty who teach them and to provide talented labor for research projects. The direct competition for research faculty often involves even larger subsidies. When a university succeeds in attracting a highly productive faculty member in the sciences from another institution, for example, the recruitment package usually includes many expenses beyond the individual’s increased salary and benefits. The university will pay for the cost of moving the scientist’s laboratory to the new university, the cost of laboratory renovations and set up, the cost of new equipment to replace equipment belonging to the prior institution. It will also pay to acquire the newly hired faculty member’s students and assistants, costs that include moving them and setting up their research space. Universities do this because the newly acquired faculty member’s team will bring larger and more significant research grants to the university, thereby increasing institutional quality. The institution also knows that it will never recover most of these relocation costs. Instead, the increased research grants and contracts brought by the newly acquired faculty member will require additional subsidies. The gain is in the acquisition of internal quality for the institution, thus improving the multiplier of university investments in research, but the university must first generate the revenue that it needs to invest in this quality. As the quality engine model shows, university success comes from the ability to spend wisely an ever-increasing revenue stream. For a research university, spending it well means increasing research productivity by acquiring the best faculty and

programs, competing successfully for the most prestigious grants, and ultimately, publishing the most significant advances in the arts, humanities, social sciences, professions, and sciences. Universities and colleges The Undergraduate Competition: Competition sell undergraduate among research universities also includes an aggressive education primarily as effort in the teaching enteran experienced process prise. While the research competition focuses on the rather than as a acquisition of scarce faculty research talent, undergradupurchased product. ate programs compete for the limited number of top-quality students. The perceived quality of a university’s undergraduate program depends in considerable measure on the quality of its student body. The better the quality of students that the university can recruit, the better the quality of undergraduate program it will have. This assumption about undergraduate quality is an important reality of the university marketplace. The undergraduate competition focuses primarily on non-academic issues that parents and students assume are relevant to the educational experience. This is an interesting phenomenon because undergraduate education is ostensibly about acquiring the defined body of knowledge that the degree certifies. If we decompose undergraduate education into its component parts, however, we find that the formal academic curriculum follows a relatively standard form at most universities and resembles a commodity product. This is true because accreditation agencies, financial aid organizations, public regulatory agencies, legislatures, and consumers of undergraduate education prefer a relatively standardized curriculum. Over time, the formal content of the undergraduate degree has tended towards a high degree of standard content from one university to another. While the curriculum may vary in terms of electives and the degree of emphasis placed on science, humanities, ethics, or religion, the basic content of a four- or five-year bachelor’s degree has become

T h e To p A m e r i c a n R e s e a r c h U n i v e r s i t i e s

Page 15

almost a commodity product, even if the way it is delivered and the faculty who deliver it vary significantly from institution to institution. In addition, even though the quality of the undergraduate content and the quality of the teaching may differ from institution to institution, the consumers generally cannot easily recognize these differences directly. Undergraduate consumers do not constitute repeat buyers in the marketplace for the most part. The differences in quality from institution to institution, while perhaps significant in some instances, have no obvious external measure. Instead, consumers look for indirect measures of presumed academic quality. As a result, universities tend to compete for students based more on the quality of the experience that students will receive at the university while pursuing the standard curricular structure, rather than on highly differentiated content within the curriculum. Without clear indicators Universities and colleges sell undergraduate education of undergraduate primarily as an experienced process rather than as a purquality, consumers chased product. They issue take the quality of a token of successful participation in that process — the students as a signal degree or diploma — but the degree certifies participation of quality content. that meets relatively generic standards and does not necessarily guarantee a particular result or a defined level of competence. Different participants will take away different results from the experience, even though they all receive the same degree. Universities and colleges imply that the degree represents a product containing a measurable and standard amount of education or knowledge. Efforts to measure this learning in some clear and reliable way have so far failed to establish a definition of the content of a standard undergraduate degree. The apparent commodity characteristic of the content and the difficulty of measuring the result of the process lead universities to compete for students based on the quality and variety of experiences and opportunities that the process provides.

As is the case with all providers of name-brand commodities, universities invest heavily in differentiating the presentation and the context of their undergraduate process to compete for quality students. The differentiation involves such things as smaller classes, enhanced extracurricular activities, and elaborate entertainment for participants through sports, art, music, theater, and similar amenities. Universities enrich the basic commodity content with learning experiences such as overseas campuses, honors programs, off-campus fieldwork, internships, and individualized study. Universities offer a wide range of experiences to accompany the commodity content by providing activities such as leadership opportunities in clubs and student government. They offer special non-academic services such as psychological counseling and travel opportunities, as well as elaborate recreation, intramural sports, and fitness programs. Success in this competition comes from attracting a high-quality student population to the campus. This is a self-reinforcing phenomenon. Without clear and direct indicators of quality, consumers take the quality of enrolled students as one of the most important signals of quality content. The high quality of existing students attracts high-quality applicants, and from this group the university can select an even higher-quality student body. All of this activity in pursuit of the quality student costs money. Enhanced facilities consume revenue. High-quality students expect preferential treatment in the form of tuition discounts and other financial aid considerations. In large, public universities with low tuition, a tuition discount is not a major benefit, but special housing, small classes for honors students, and special extracurricular opportunities all cost money and help to attract the best students. Indeed, the competitiveness of the honors programs at public institutions is such that their admissions standards are often higher than those at most elite private colleges (and of course much higher than the general admission standards of the public institution itself). The undergraduate financial model that supports this competition varies by institutional control.

Page 16

The Competitive Context

Private institutions use substantial subsidies drawn from endowment income and annual gifts to support the tuition discounts that attract the best students. This limits the size of the student body that they can support. Public universities, with taxsupported payments for instruction, often respond to the political process and state funding systems when setting enrollments. Public institutions use their discretionary dollars to create special programs and enrich the educational experience that they offer to the most desirable students. The undergraduate financial system depends less on the sale of admission to students and more on the acquisition of funds from multiple sources to support the experience of students. Many who do not participate directly in undergraduate education nonetheless pay for its success. Some funding comes by virtue of social policies such as state and federal payments for student financial aid. Alumni and other private individuals contribute to scholarships and programs for undergraduates because they value a continuing identification with the undergraduate experience. Others support quality undergraduate programs through bequests, endowments, and capital gifts that secure the immortality of permanent recognition. The motives for these purchasers of undergraduate quality are many, but each purchase recognizes value in the process, although many of those who contribute to the cost of undergraduate education (state and federal legislators and private donors in particular) do not actually receive a direct benefit. Colleges and universities invest heavily in enhancements to the undergraduate experience, because they know that the quality of students and of student life attracts other students and signals the overall quality of the institution to donors, alumni, faculty, legislators, and others. For the same reasons, colleges and universities invest in elegant campuses, ivy-covered buildings, student recreation facilities, cultural entertainment programs, alumni halls, intercollegiate sports, and other non-academic features of college life. The techniques used to fund the endless additions to the undergraduate process and to enhance the physical and experiential elements of college life vary among institutions, but

the drive to generate revenue for investment in this competition for high-quality students is visible in all institutional types. The Combination of Undergraduate and Research Competition: High-quality research Research universities, by universities compete directly with the single-function, elite virtue of the complexity undergraduate colleges for the scarce talent of superior stuof their activities, dents. It is no surprise, then, cross-subsidize research to discover that the undergraduate part of the research from teaching and university functions in ways that mimic the elite college. teaching from research. However, where the elite college emphasizes the benefits of a smaller size, the research universities tend to emphasize the benefits of their nationally preeminent research faculty and the breadth of their offerings. In this competition for quality undergraduates, the research university has some advantages. Research universities, by virtue of the complexity of their activities, find ways to cross-subsidize research from teaching, and teaching from research. The most obvious example involves the physical plant. Facilities that the university builds for research often support some forms of teaching as well, either through laboratory use or by housing faculty who teach. Similarly, facilities constructed in support of teaching also house faculty who conduct research. Libraries serve both teaching and research, but the support of a research program allows a much larger and richer library for undergraduates than the university could afford based on its undergraduate program alone. At the same time, in public universities, tax-generated funding for libraries often follows formulas based on enrollment, and the existence of a larger undergraduate population may make possible a richer research library than the university could afford on the basis of its research activity alone. Computing resources, like libraries, often have a scale in support of teaching and research that they could not reach based on one or the other alone. The most important shared element, of course, is the faculty. Research universities can have a larger

Page 17

faculty than they could justify by the teaching mission alone, because the institution subsidizes a portion of faculty time for research purposes and competes for research dollars that sustain additional parts of the faculty’s costs. The university will not necessarily have more faculty members teaching smaller classes. Instead, the students will have the opportunity to engage a wider range of high-quality research faculty talent. The key distinction is the word “opportunity.” In the competition that surrounds the standard content of undergraduate education, the opportunity for participation is often just as important as a student actually engaging research faculty. Many students do not care to engage faculty beyond the minimum requirements, while others anticipate Some institutions avoid that they will engage but do not actually do so. confronting the data, Research faculty may not but those who seek teach many of the large, lower-division undergraduate improvement know that courses, but they frequently teach upper-division courses they must monitor the for majors. As a result, students in general may not have numbers reflecting their many encounters with distincompetitive position. guished research faculty, but they usually will have at least some encounters, thus validating the opportunity for participation. Both the presence of the research enterprise and the high national visibility of such activity enhance the institution’s ability to generate revenue from other sources in support of undergraduate education. Donors, for example, in giving to scholarships and other funds that the university uses to recruit the best undergraduate students, may be responding just as much to the institution’s research reputation as they are to the actual quality of the undergraduate program. Conversely, undergraduate education also supports research. The best research faculty often value their membership in an academic community that includes quality undergraduate programs and student life. They seek an academic environment

that includes sports facilities, recreation, music, fine arts, and other entertainment and culture brought by the existence of the quality undergraduate experience. All faculty value their membership in a university community that they perceive to be intellectually elite, and the quality of the undergraduates is one of the tokens of elite status that universities use in recruiting stellar faculty. Many research faculty also seek the opportunity to teach talented undergraduates. In some circumstances, the relationship between undergraduate education and research is more direct and revenue-related. In public universities, the undergraduate mission — seen by state agencies as a primary activity — often generates an amount of revenue that exceeds the direct cost of undergraduate education. In such cases, undergraduate students become a profit center, generating revenue above their costs that the university can then reinvest to subsidize quality research. States sometimes fund universities based on formulas that anticipate providing the university with some research support for every undergraduate student enrolled. This reflects the belief that faculty research contributes to the quality of undergraduate education. As mentioned above, states often use formulas based on undergraduate enrollment in funding facilities for infrastructure, library, or computing, thus creating a subsidy for research facilities at the same time. This revenue synergy between teaching and research at public universities offsets their relatively small endowments as compared to their private university competitors. It also helps to explain the relatively large size of undergraduate populations at public research institutions. In a private institution, which lacks publicly funded subsidies for education, the size of the undergraduate population is more a function of the revenue available to subsidize quality students. Increasing the size of the student body usually does not increase available revenue, especially if the university must pay more to educate the students than their discounted tuition can cover. The drive to acquire quality students and research faculty creates a universal imperative: to generate the revenue needed to compete for these scarce but

essential elements. The university, represented by its shell structure, organizes its systems into a revenuegenerating organization on behalf of faculty research and student quality. In this competition, institutions require both the availability of the revenue and its effective investment to produce a top American research university.

Measuring Institutional Competitiveness for Research Universities
Ranking and Measuring
The operation of research universities is a required topic for everyone interested in improving institutional performance. Often, the rhetoric of improvement implies a positive-sum game in which everyone can improve by doing the right thing. In one sense, this is true, for every university can improve its internal operations and enhance its performance as a result. The message of positive-sum improvement, however, implies that the choice of what to improve is a local concern. If every university could improve without regard to other participants in the higher education environment, then improvement relative to others would not be particularly important. The significant question would then be internal: how well does the institution perform on whatever internal agenda it defines? University improvement programs often appear in this format, proposing to enhance some aspect of the local environment as if what happens elsewhere is of minor concern or serves primarily as a source of examples of desirable programs and activities. The advantage of this perspective is that such improvement programs generally have weak mechanisms for determining success or failure, since any change can appear to be beneficial. Its inherent flaw, however, is that it ignores the reality of competition for scarce but essential resources. As the quality engine model shows, quality elements are scarce, and universities acquire them through competition against other institutions.

Competition for students, faculty, and research defines the performance of the research university. Some institutions may prefer to avoid confronting the data that describe their success in this competition; however, those who seek improvement know that they must monitor the numbers reflecting their competitive position. Universities and their constituents often focus on process issues rather than on performance. They worry about the process for distributing revenue, for hiring faculty, and for recruiting students. They pay much less attention to the results and especially to the comparative results. However, if the process for distributing revenue to the guilds produces internal harmony and high levels of participation but fails to improve either undergraduate quality or research performance, then it is actually a failed process, regardless of the state of internal harmony. Sustaining undergraduate programs and research at nationally competitive levels of quality and productivity requires constant measurement, close attention to revenues and expenditures, and close faculty and administrative management. A few universities perform at top competitive levels; others compete more effectively in some things and less so in others. TheCenter’s data identify some of the characteristics of the institutions that excel in this national competition. The data in this publication (presented in more detail online) display these characteristics. Institutions are often frustrated by the lack of tools The drive to acquire that are currently available for measuring their success in quality students and the competition for faculty, students, and dollars.

Detailed, standardized rankings, they advertise information does exist for a variety of accounting their own success in purposes that are useful for spurious rankings with demonstrating the fulfillment of the institution’s enthusiasm. fiduciary responsibilities, but these data do not usually serve a useful management purpose. Systems for ranking and classifying universities abound, and many of these systems use data that are unreliable or inappropriate for this purpose. Many rankings attempt to capture in one number an aggregate evaluation of the institution’s worth relative to others. No currently available data offer sufficient reliability or coverage to accomplish this task. The widely varying results from year to year of the most popular of these rankings, outlined in a paper published online by TheCenter, offer eloquent testimony to the unreliability of the measures, since colleges and universities in the top categories rarely change their competitive performance significantly from one year to the next. These popular rankings will often move institutions up and down in ways that do not reflect real changes in performance. In addition, universities compete in the marketplace of public opinion based on prestige or reputation, which is often a highly subjective evaluation. Prestige is a form of name-brand recognition derived from historical visibility, from promotional campaigns that project institutional identity, and from the halo effect of real accomplishments. As a result, colleges and universities emphasize what is unique and different in their environment. They collect information that identifies them as unique in a comparative context. Special characteristics demonstrated by institutionally unique data are a hallmark of much university-generated public relations information. Prestige, or reputation, also reflects past behavior and publicity more than current

performance, and its unreliability severely limits the validity of rankings that use reputation as an indicator. Various national groups publish many rankings of universities, colleges, and programs, and these rankings fill a vacuum created by the inability of universities to agree on standard, validated measures of performance or on common criteria for judging competitiveness. Although many universities complain bitterly about the unreliable nature of the rankings (and they truly are often quite unreliable), these same universities nonetheless advertise their own success in spurious rankings with great enthusiasm. In the competition for the best students and faculty, universities embrace positive rankings in the effort to enhance their reputations. They also use positive rankings from virtually any source to persuade donors and other revenue providers that the institution’s unique and valuable mission deserves a gift or grant or additional state or federal subsidy. The highly publicized but methodologically questionable rankings serve this purpose. They create an illusion of distinction and differentiation, offer a presumably impartial validation of qualities promoted by the institution, and create an opportunity for self-promotion that outsiders find difficult to challenge and that insiders find difficult to resist. Within the many rankings done by organizations with different purposes and using different methodologies, universities can usually find at least one that ranks them highly on some criteria. These rankings, in spite of their visibility, do not help university managers, although they may indeed help the public relations effort. No business, not-for-profit or otherwise, can allow promotional materials alone to serve as accurate measures of its competitive success. To do so is to forfeit the opportunity to improve the university’s performance. Without clear measurement and a commitment to competitive success, universities tend to replicate themselves at the same level (or at slightly declining levels) of performance. Absent institutional commitment, the external competition for the best students and faculty will slowly erode a university’s quality. Beyond the minimal requirements of enrollment

Page 20

Ranking and Measuring

and meeting the institution’s steady state financial commitments, nothing in the external environment compels a self-generating research university to become better than it already is. The drive to compete at a high level generally comes from within the institution. For research universities, the risks inherent in unmeasured management are significant. This is because success is so heavily dependent on the institution’s ability to generate the money for effective investment in research and student subsidies. An institution that manages its money poorly loses the opportunity to generate surpluses to invest in research and student quality. An institution that raises too little endowment to generate income or inadequate annual giving to sustain its subsidies, for example, will eventually fail to maintain its market share in the research competition, thus losing its competitive edge in recruiting the best students. An institution that invests without measuring results will waste its resources. In the competition for quality undergraduates and research performance, the total size of the university’s budget does not matter as much as the way that the institution uses its money. If a large institution with a budget in excess of a billion dollars spends large portions of its revenue on activities that are unrelated to research or undergraduate quality, it will have a less competitive research university than a much smaller institution that spends most of its money on research and undergraduate quality. The first requirement for a successful research university is to generate revenue. The second requirement is to spend it well. The detailed and specific methods that universities use internally to make good choices vary from place to place and from time to time, but a number of measures do exist that serve as reasonably reliable indicators of an institution’s competitiveness in the national marketplace. A discussion of these measures appears below. Defining the Competition: Although the quality engine model depicts research universities operating two theoretically separable economies for teaching and research, most institutional accounting systems do not separate the revenue and expenses clearly enough to analyze these economies separately.

Rather than trying to identify research or teaching revenue and expenses as separate elements, it is more useful to imagine that the university purchases its undergraduate and research quality by drawing the money from one common fund. This is not true in detail, of course, since most university money is restricted to specific purposes in both private and public institutions. Nonetheless, universities gain more by thinking of all of the revenue as being available for any purpose: money is money. Institutions that first identify the best uses for their revenue (whether in improving the quality of the undergraduate student body or in improving the quality of the research enterprise), before considering various restrictions and limitations created by the providers of the revenue, will make better choices. They will identify the highest and best use of each dollar, and then, if necessary, they can make adjustments, reallocations, or transfers to meet required fund restrictions. By making their choices first, however, many universities find that they can accommodate fund restrictions and still stay on track with their optimal expenditure plan.

The university with the most research, the highest student quality, and the most distinguished faculty is thus the most competitive. Of course, such measures do not mean that universities with smaller numbers are of less intrinsic value or that their smaller number of research faculty are less distinguished or less productive than the larger number at the more competitive institution. The data only identify which institutions compete most successfully for the largest share of the quality elements that all universities seek.

These data help to clarify general impressions about university performance. The differences between institutions with similar performance characteristics are not great, which is why TheCenter classifies institutions into groups based on their performance within the top 25 or the top 50 institutions on a variety of measures. More important than the classification of institutions into these groups, the comparable data provided by TheCenter allows universities to measure the effectiveness of their improvement initiatives. Indicators of Competitiveness: Although we cannot measure research university competition directly at the institutional level, a number of comparable indicators exist that, when taken together, give a reasonably good sense of a university’s competitiveness. This publication reports on these indicators, which the 2000 edition of The Top American Research Universities described in detail. In the following summary of each of the measures, we have included a high-median-low graphic that captures the range of performance of private and public research institutions on each measure within each of the four research groups or categories (over $20 million, $5 to $20 million, $1 to $5 million, and under $1 million in federal research expenditures). To reduce the effect of outliers, the high represents the 75th percentile and the low represents the 25th percentile. Briefly, the most important indicator of research competitiveness is the institution’s annual federal research expenditures. This number, reported by

the National Science Foundation (NSF), reflects an institution’s research expenditures in the areas of science and engineering from funds awarded by the various programs of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the National Science Foundation, and other agencies of the federal government, including the departments of Defense and Energy. These dollars, generally distributed through an intensely competitive peer-reviewed process, reflect the active scientific community’s judgment on the competitiveness of the faculty at each institution. An additional value of this measure is that it indicates the effectiveness of the institution in supporting research, for the more money a university spends in support of research, all things being equal, the more research it will get. Of course, if a university spends its money in support of research that does not result in publication or other peerreviewed results, its standing in this competition will not improve. For these reasons, most observers of the competition among American research universities watch the federal research expenditure number as the most reliable single indicator of research competitiveness. NSF also reports the annual federal awards of grants and contracts for research received by each institution, which is a significantly less useful measure. Awards often reflect multi-year commitments; expenditures capture the actual work done on projects during a given year. Awards also include dollars that subsequently flow to other universities under subcontracts. For institutions moving rapidly ahead on a research promotion agenda, the awards number may help to demonstrate their growing success in competing for greater amounts of research funding, but as a comparative measure of current university performance, the expenditure data are more reliable. Universities, both private and public, in addition to the federal expenditures, report expenditures from non-federal sources, including corporations, state governments, and foundation or for-profit research enterprises. These expenditures, more broadly defined than the federal number, include a variety of specially designated state funds that are allocated to institutions within the state for agriculture or other research purposes. Such funding may not be nation-

ally competitive. Nonetheless, these expenditures, combined with the federal expenditures, reflect total research activity and provide a useful indicator of research performance, even if the national peer review process does not referee all of the projects included in this number. Most of the non-federal portion of this total research, especially when funded by foundations, requires institutional subsidies as well. Thus, many observers recognize total research expenditures as another useful indicator of research competitiveness. Universities that do not have large portfolios of corporate or agricultural research will argue that the total research measurement puts them at a disadvantage in any comparison. While that may be true, institutions still make many choices in how they will spend their revenue in support of research. Some will take advantage of medical schools; others will leverage their opportunities in agriculture. Some will take advantage of successfully constructed linkages between industry and programs in engineering to generate corporate funding. Others will benefit from alumni who direct large foundations that make research grants. The issue here is not the relative value of the different types of research but rather the strategies and successes of universities in creating the revenue necessary to expand their research portfolios. In making choices about how to compete for external research funding, some universities compete in all sectors of the research market, while others compete only in the parts of the market where they identify a comparative advantage. The federal and

total research expenditures capture most of this activity, and together these two serve as useful indicators of competitive research success. In the discussion of changes in research competitiveness included in this edition of The Top American Research Universities, however, we maintain our focus on federal research expenditures. Although it is difficult to derive a valid measure of the total financial resources that are available to a research university, two measures provide some indication of the university’s ability to compete for private funds. Endowment represents the university’s permanent fund that continues to generate income each year. Annual giving includes the total gifts received by the university in the most recent year. While endowment reflects a long history of private giving, as well as the growth of the fund through retained earnings and appreciation, it also serves as

Postdoctoral appointees demonstrate the commitment of the institution to subsidizing the cost of advanced training, much of which is in support of research, as well as their success in competing for grants that include postdoctoral support. Finally, as our model indicates, the best research universities spend a significant portion of revenue on the maintenance of high-quality undergraduate programs, and the median SAT score of the entering freshman class serves as an indicator of success in this competition. Graduate student quality would also be a useful indicator, but the data for such an indicator are not available in a form we can use in this project.

an indirect indicator of the annual income available from this source for current competitive expenditures. Annual giving reflects the most recent efforts of the institution in the private marketplace for donations. Data that directly measure faculty quality and productivity at the institutional level are rare, but national figures do exist on the numbers of National Academy memberships and prestigious faculty awards of various kinds. These distinctions, which recognize individual faculty merit in a wide range of scholarly disciplines, serve as useful indicators of an institution’s success in acquiring scarce faculty talent. Taken together, the two measures identify faculty recognized for distinction in the sciences, the humanities and social sciences, as well as most other fields of academic scholarship.

These nine measures provide the basis for categorizing The Top American Research Universities. We believe that it is useful to identify those institutions that compete at the top levels (within the top 25) and at the next level (within the top 26–50) on one or more of these measures. Although we continue the practice of showing private and public institutional categories separately, we focus primarily on the categorization that includes all research universities within a national context. In some ways, we find this to be more useful, since the competition for faculty, students, and revenue often puts private and public universities into direct competition with each other on a national basis.

The Impact of Enrollment and Medical Schools on Research Competitiveness
Some universities have remarkable success in the competition described by these data, but the critical determinants of university performance do not appear so clearly. In conversations among university people, two elements receive much attention. Some argue that increasing undergraduate enrollments brings a major competitive advantage. Others believe that the presence of a medical school gives universities a competitive advantage in today’s research marketplace. While our data indicate that enrollment and medical schools may very well make some difference, the impact is not as straightforward or as significant as one might assume.

Private and Public University Enrollment, Federal Research, and Faculty Numbers: Most observers of American research universities recognize that private universities tend to have smaller enrollments than their public counterparts. As indicated above in our discussion of the quality engine model, enrollment size responds to many pressures but probably reflects the financial model underlying the institution. Because research universities are complex organizations, however, simple assumptions about the relationship of enrollment to institutional competitiveness in research and student quality generally do not hold. To explore the impact of enrollment, we first examined the relationship between undergraduate headcount enrollment and federal research. We made a few adjustments to the data. For the analysis, we excluded stand-alone medical institutions. These institutions are significant competitors in the research marketplace but do not include undergraduate education within their primary mission. After these adjustments, the universe that we examined included those 575 universities reporting any federal research between 1990 and 1999, although we focused primarily on institutions with over $20 million in federal research. The scatterplot displays undergraduate enrollment and federal research for the 129 major research universities in this adjusted universe with over $20 million in federal expenditures. It clearly Large and small illustrates that private universities generally have institutions, private smaller enrollments than do their public counterparts, and public, appear but at the same time, it at all levels of research shows no simple linear relationship between performance. undergraduate enrollment size and success in the federal research competition. Large and small institutions, private and public, appear at all levels of research performance. The same pattern also holds for those research universities with less than $20 million. At every level of federal research, public universities tend to

be larger than are their private counterparts, but the relationship between undergraduate size and federal research success is weak. Enrollment size is of some significance, nonetheless, in understanding the different financial models that underlie private and public research university competition. In our model of research universities described above, what matters is the availability of funds to invest in the acquisition and support of research faculty and of quality undergraduate programs. In the case of public universities, the size of an institution’s undergraduate enrollment responds to many pressures. In some instances, public universities grow in response to state mandates for increased public access to undergraduate education. Such institutions may well have many students and may use the revenue from enrollment to support a large portfolio of instructional and service enterprises that are of significant value but are unrelated to research or to the acquisition of quality students. In the event that teaching and

service do not produce revenue exceeding their costs, their contribution to research or student competitiveness will not be great. Large institutions may also incur a quality penalty. In accommodating the large number of undergraduates required by state access goals, they may not have the resources to invest in the programs and other amenities that attract the highest quality undergraduates. Nonetheless, because most public universities receive substantial portions of their total budgets based on undergraduate enrollments, it is not surprising to discover that they generally grow larger than their private counterparts, whose revenue is not as enrollment driven. Indeed, private universities have between one-fourth to less than one-half of the median undergraduate enrollment of public institutions at every level of federal research. However, undergraduate enrollment has an obvious impact on the number of faculty members at an institution. In public universities, the larger number of students can support a larger number

Page 26

Enrollment and Medical Schools

of faculty than at their smaller private counterparts. Nonetheless, if the larger public institution hires mostly teaching faculty — individuals who do not perform significant amounts of competitive research — then the increased faculty size will enhance research competitiveness less than the increase in faculty numbers might suggest. While public institutions support larger undergraduate student bodies and have larger complements of personnel than their private counterparts, this added size does not necessarily enhance their ability to capture large research portfolios or to enhance the quality of their students. Although the best public research competitors have substantial undergraduate enrollments (the five top public university performers in federal research have enrollments in the 15,000 to 30,000 range), the four private universities in the same range all have less than 12,000 in undergraduate enrollment. Again, we believe that this speaks to the underlying financial models. Public university enrollments may help to generate the revenue that allows them to compete for research faculty, but private universities may not gain much benefit from larger undergraduate enrollments. Unlike public universities, whose undergraduate enrollments respond to public policies and funding priorities, private universities may set their enrollments to meet programmatic needs. Private universities need enough students to populate the academic programs that they offer. An institution with a small number of academic specialties may require a smaller undergraduate student body than an institution with many specialties. Elite private universities often subsidize the tuition of their students from internal funds (using endowment earnings as well as various forms of federal and state financial aid) in order to compete successfully for the best students. Consequently, for private universities, increasing the size of the undergraduate student body may not produce a financial benefit but may instead increase their costs. For these reasons, it is likely that private institutions have a self-limiting enrollment structure scaled to match the academic complexity of the institution as well as its investment in competing for high-

quality students. As a result, the benefit that a larger enrollment brings to the private university’s research competitiveness is relatively limited. This may help to explain the narrower range of enrollment sizes for private universities compared to the wider range observed in comparable public institutions. An additional perspective on the issue of enrollment size involves the relationships between graduate student enrollment and federal research. Some graduate student enrollment, especially of those in the pursuit of Ph.D.s, reflects the size and capacity of research programs, but other graduate students are in various forms of terminal master’s degree programs that have much less of a relationship to the university’s research agenda. Universities with larger undergraduate enrollment gain an opportunity to support a larger number of graduate students For public universities, as teaching assistants. The plot of graduate student increasing undergraduate headcount and federal enrollment may help to research for the major research universities with generate the revenue that over $20 million in federal research is instructive. allows them to compete Among both private and for research faculty.

The scatterplot of undergraduate and graduate enrollment illustrates that while both private and public universities demonstrate a relationship between undergraduate and graduate enrollment, the relationship is substantially higher for public universities, as we would expect given the role of graduate students in the teaching mission of large public institutions.

Enrollment and Medical Schools

While enrollment, both undergraduate and graduate, helps us to understand some of the competitive elements in the construction of a successful research university, we do not have a measure for the most important element: the number of active research faculty. Unfortunately, no methodology currently exists to capture this number accurately. While all universities report various faculty counts to national agencies and in response to a variety of surveys, the methodologies used to produce these numbers vary significantly by institution, as described in a paper published on TheCenter website. The result is that comparisons based on faculty counts are unreliable, mostly because the data from the institutions are not comparable. Further complicating the use of faculty counts is the wide range of faculty functions in universities of different types. Some institutions have many individuals classified as faculty in instructional and service activities, while other institutions have most of their faculty in research functions. If we could identify the full-time equivalent research faculty on a standard basis across institutions, our hypothesis predicts that this number would be an excellent predictor of institutional research success, as it often is in comparing the research success of individual guilds. Reliable data on research faculty would also permit an analysis of comparative faculty productivity by institution, a task not possible with currently available faculty data. Medical Schools and Federal Research: Medical schools offer another point of comparison between institutions. A common perception holds that institutions with medical schools have an advantage in a research competition where significant sums go to biomedical and life science projects. Indeed, only eight institutions out of the top 50 in federal research succeed at this level without a medical school. The importance of life science research for many high-performing universities (which is visible in the data table of Institutional Characteristics for Institutions with Over $20 million in Federal Research) reinforces the belief in the importance of a medical school in the competition for federal research dollars.

Although medical schools frequently have highquality research faculty who compete successfully for federal grants and contracts, the data do not demonstrate that the existence of a medical school alone guarantees a nationally competitive research university faculty. Universities with and without medical schools appear at all levels of research competition. Although only one institution without a medical school competes among the top ten institutions in federal research, many institutions without medical schools compete successfully in each Comparisons based subsequent group of ten among the top 130 instituon faculty counts are tions (excluding stand-alone medical schools) ranked by unreliable, mostly federal research. because the data from The primary functions of medical schools, the institutions are not which include preparing future physicians and comparable. participating in the clinical enterprise, do not necessarily require high levels of federally funded basic research. Universities without medical schools often have significant investments in biomedical research in departments of biology, microbiology, bioengineering, and similar disciplines, and they often compete effectively against the medical school research faculty at other institutions. The key contribution that a medical school makes to a research university is the generation of surplus revenue that can subsidize the development of high-quality biomedical and life science research. Most, but not all, medical schools prove capable of generating such surpluses and have the commitment to invest such funds into research. Nonetheless, universities with and without medical schools perform at comparable levels of research competitiveness. The chart included here shows the top 130 research universities divided into groups of ten based upon federal research, with each cluster divided by those institutions with medical schools and those without. In this chart, we removed the institutions that are stand-alone medical schools,

as our discussion here focuses on comprehensive research universities that include medical schools. Universities with and without medical schools appear in all clusters of federal research within the top 130 universities represented by this chart. Of the 80 universities with medical schools, 14 institutions do not have sufficient federal research activity to rank among the top 130 institutions included in this chart.

When a medical school generates a surplus and invests that in support of research, its presence as part of the university will make a major contribution to its research competitiveness. The existence of a medical school with the capacity to support research, then, contributes to the university’s research competitiveness. A medical school alone does not guarantee competitiveness.

ance of a university in terms of its federal research comes from the success of its faculty in competing for these funds. While this is obvious, it bears emphasis that this competition is fierce. Success rates for proposals submitted to the NSF and NIH vary, but in recent years, over all projects, about 30% of the proposals submitted received funding. The resulting expenditures by universities from federal funds reflect the aggregate success of the institution in acquiring and supporting research faculty who compete successfully for these funds. Universities increase or decrease in their research performance based primarily on this competition. Change in Rank Order: Many observers focus on the ranking of research universities, including the authors of this report. However, overemphasis on rank order as the primary reflection of competitiveness can obscure some important distinctions. Ranking, by virtue of its evenly spaced series from number one on down, gives the impression that ranking also reflects an even distribution of performance. That is certainly not the case here. In fact, the performance gap between universities at the top of the ranking scale is much greater than the difference separating universities farther down the scale. As the following figure illustrates, the distance that separates universities (median, low, and high) within groups of ten decreases rapidly as rank declines.

Change in Competitive Performance on Federal Research
Competition in university research implies gains and losses. University faculty offer more quality research proposals than the various federal agencies can support. Primarily through the process of peer review, although sometimes through the direct appropriation of federal dollars to individual research projects or institutions without peer review (this process is called earmarking), some faculty projects receive funding while others do not.

Change in Federal Research

For example, the median gap between each of the universities ranked 1–10 is about $14.2 million, while the median gap for ranks 11–20 is less than two-thirds of that at $5.2 million. Thus, to improve in rank, holding all other elements constant, a university in the top ten might need to increase its federal expenditures by roughly 6% while a university in the 11–20 range would only need to increase by about 2%. In practice, not all elements are constant, since a change in the rank of any particular university is a function of its position relative not to the median of its group but to the performance of institutions immediately above and below. The variation in the gap between institutions of similar research performance is large, and the amount of change required to move up one rank varies substantially by institution. Improvement or decline in rank also depends on the behavior of other universities. If the institution one position higher declines in performance, the university below may improve its rank without having improved its performance at all. A university that improves its performance may nonetheless decline in rank because the institution below it made a greater improvement and the institution above it improved by the same amount. The figures included here clarify these relationships. We looked at all universities with $20 million or more in federal research over a period of ten years (1990–1999). We divided them into two groups:
Over $20 Million Universities with an Increase in Federal Research: Change in National Rank, 1990–99
$400,000
1999 Federal Research (x $1,000)

those whose federal research increased in constant 1998 dollars, and those whose federal research declined. We then tracked the change in rank for each group and arranged them by the size of their 1999 federal research expenditures. Of those who gained in expenditures, some also improved their rank, but many did not. The amount of rank change over the ten-year period increases as the amount of federal research decreases, illustrating the impact of the smaller gap between universities at lower ranks. The second chart shows the rank change for institutions that experienced a decline in federal research during the ten-year period. All of those in the higher ranks declined significantly in research volume and declined somewhat in rank with the exception of Johns Hopkins. Although Hopkins lost $29.8 million in constant dollars over the ten years, it easily maintained its top position in the ranking. The ranking of universities helps to illustrate the general characteristics of research competitiveness, but change in rank is less helpful as an indicator of individual university performance over time. A better indicator is the actual change in federal research expenditures, expressed in constant 1998 dollars, which gives a useful comparative context for assessing institutional performance. An absolute decline in constant-dollar federal research expenditures is a relatively clear event for this decade, since there was an increase in the total federal dollars available.

however, offers two possible interpretations. In the first case, an institution might increase its research expenditures, but at a rate less than the rate of increase for all research university federal expenditures. In this decade, the overall increase was 25.3%. In a relative sense, this may reflect a decline in an institution’s share of federal research, as it has not grown at the same rate as the pool of funds. In the second case, an institution might increase its constant-dollar research expenditures at a rate in

excess of the increase of the pool, thus also increasing its share. The table below displays those universities with over $20 million that experienced each of these three cases over the past ten years. Private and Public University Shares of Federal Research: The shifts in market share offer some additional insight. The past decade has seen the emergence of a number of public universities competing successfully for federal research dollars. As a result, the distribution of market share in federal research expenditures has shifted over the period of 1990–1999. Private universities with over $20 million in federal research lost 2.2% market share during the decade. This was the only category of universities amount our four research groups that lost market share. Because the total amount of federal dollars grew during those ten years, the private institutions in this category gained $896 million, but because the total federal expenditures grew at a faster rate, they actually lost market share. Public research universities with over $1 million gained 1.97%, with most of the gain occurring in

the $20 million and $5–$20 million categories. Private universities with less than $20 million gained 0.23% market share in the decade. A final reflection on the private-public distribution of federal research compares private and public university research expenditures. The graph includes two lines plotted on the same scale: one for the top 100 private universities and the other for top 100 public universities, both arranged in order of their

federal research expenditures. The purpose of this graph is to show the relative competitiveness of private and public research universities in acquiring federal research support. For the first 12 private and the first 12 public universities, the private universities have a higher level of federal research. After than, this pattern reverses, and from rank 13 on down, public universities have greater federal research expenditures than private universities. This pattern indicates that the top private universities continue to succeed in maintaining their preeminence as competitive research performers. However, the number of private universities that can compete with their public counterparts falls off after rank 12. Although we have not yet analyzed this pattern in detail, we expect that tax-based funding provides the revenue supporting many public universities’ investments in research-competitive faculty and facilities. Private universities often find it more difficult to generate the revenue required to compete for faculty and to provide the necessary research support. As a result, while many private universities remain competitive, they find themselves at a

disadvantage compared to their public competitors on one side and their better-endowed private competitors on the other. Patterns of Improvement and Decline in Federal Research Expenditures: Although we can summarize the aggregate behavior of research university competitiveness over time, as measured by federal research expenditures, the patterns of change for individual universities pose a different challenge. Some institutions demonstrate predictable patterns, with a steady increase or decrease in their expenditures. For others, the data change substantially over the ten-year period, rising many millions in one year and falling an equal or greater amount in subsequent years. These larger changes reflect many circumstances that are particular to each university. Institutions can receive grants that include capital expenditures. As the university spends these one-time dollars, the reported federal expenditures for that year will spike upward, only to fall back to a normal level in subsequent years. Institutions can gain or lose large grants, producing major fluctuations

in their expenditure patterns. Sometimes, universities improve their methods of data reporting to the federal government, producing a one-time increase in the reported revenue. Whatever the case, an explanation for the particular history of any university’s research competitiveness requires a specific and detailed understanding of that institution’s research activities in comparison to similarly competitive counterparts. The explanations for a rise or fall in reported results will vary significantly from institution to institution. An illustration of the complexity of a university’s research performance as reflected by federal expenditures is visible in the graphs of ten universities displayed in the two figures below. The first figure graphs the ten-year performance of five universities (1 private, 4 public) that showed the greatest percentage improvement in their research performance (excluding stand-alone medical institutions). The second figure graphs a comparable group of five universities (3 private, 2 public) that declined the most in research performance during the same ten-

year period. The institutions all fall within a group reporting expenditures in the $20–$90 million range in 1999. The graphs display expenditures in constant 1998 dollars. Some of these institutions report a steady rise or fall in expenditures; others show major changes from one year to the next. To understand the competitive circumstances of the federal research marketplace that these data reflect, each institution would need to review its ten-year data and compare this performance history with its near competitors. For all of the similarity in their organizational models, American research universities have many different strategies for success. No single pattern explains the success or difficulty encountered by universities in competing for federal research and outstanding students. Our understanding of research university behavior indicates that the most important element is the creation of revenue to subsidize the acquisition of high-quality scarce faculty and student talent and support for the research enterprise. At the same time, each

university has an internal strategy for the effective investment of its revenue. Many characteristics determine a university’s ability to compete for the scarce elements that make a research institution. No single characteristic appears to explain competitive achievement, but instead, the right combination of elements matched with an institution’s resources and opportunities is what appears to drive the most successful institutions. To maintain or improve their competitiveness in these marketplaces, universities almost certainly need to understand the relationship between their investments in research and student support and the results that they achieve. Some universities may be wealthy enough to avoid the discipline of measuring results, but most institutions are not. Our goal in this publication is to provide useful data that present institutions within their competitive context as a tool for measuring and improving research university performance.

Data Tables
Part I The Top American Research Universities
TheCenter determines the Top American Research Universities by their rank on nine different measures: Total Research, Federal Research, Endowment Assets, Annual Giving, National Academy Members, Faculty Awards, Doctorates Granted, Postdoctoral Appointees, and Median SAT Scores. (The Source Notes section of this study provides detailed information on each of the nine indicators.) The tables group research institutions according to how many times they rank in the top 25 on each of these nine measures. The top category includes those universities that rank in the top 25 on all nine indicators. The bottom category includes universities with only one of the nine measures ranked in the top 25. Within these groups, institutions are then sorted by how many times they rank between 26 and 50 on the nine performance variables, with ties listed alphabetically. A similar methodology produces a second set of institutions — those ranked 26 through 50 on the same nine measures. For the purpose of this study, TheCenter includes only those institutions that had at least $20 million in federal research expenditures in FY 1999. This is the same dollar cutoff used in our last report. The first two tables list each institution with the most current data available for each measure and its corresponding national rank (i.e., rank among all institutions regardless of whether they are privately or publicly controlled). The third and fourth tables provide the same nine data measures but with the groupings determined by the control rank (i.e., rank among all private or all public institutions). Institutions ranking in the top 25 on at least one measure are included in the tables with the (1–25) identifier, while those ranking 26 through 50 are found in the tables labeled with the (26–50) header.

• The Top American Research Universities (1–25) identifies the 50 institutions (26 private, 24 public) that rank in the top 25 nationally on at least one of the nine measures.

• The Top American Research Universities (26–50) identifies the 37 institutions (9 private, 28 public) that rank 26 through 50 nationally on at least one of the nine measures.

• The Top Private Research Universities (1–25) identifies the 36 private
institutions that rank in the top 25 among all private universities on at least one of the nine measures.

• The Top Public Research Universities (1–25) identifies the 46 public
institutions that rank in the top 25 among all public universities on at least one of the nine measures.

• The Top Private and Public Research Universities (26–50) identifies the
12 private and 31 public institutions that rank 26 through 50 among their private or public counterparts on at least one of the nine measures. Many research universities rank highly both nationally and among their public or private peers and therefore appear in more than one table. For example, of the 36 private institutions in the Top Private Research Universities (1–25) table, 27 universities also appear in the Top American Research Universities (1–25) table. Data found in these tables may not always match the figures published by the original source. TheCenter makes adjustments, when necessary, to ensure that the data reflect the activity at a single campus rather than that of a multiple campus institution or state university system. When data are missing from the original source, TheCenter may substitute another figure if available. A full discussion of this subject, and the various adjustments or substitutions made to the original data, is in the Data Notes section of this report. TheCenter presents these tables, along with last year’s top universities, in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets on its website [http://thecenter.ufl.edu].

Part II TheCenter Research Universities
TheCenter’s Research Universities consist of academic institutions that had more than $20 million in federal research expenditures in FY 1999. In the following tables, institutions are listed alphabetically with the most current data available on each measure, their rank on each measure, and the prior year ranks. TheCenter provides both the national rank (rank among all universities) and the control rank (rank within private or public universities). In addition to the nine performance variables presented in The Top American Research Universities tables, these tables also include other institutional characteristics related to student enrollment, medical schools, land grant status, ownership, research focus, and National Merit and National Achievement Scholars. The Source Notes section of this report provides detailed information on each data element. Tables in this section include: • Research presents total and federal research expenditures and a breakdown of federal research by major discipline.

• Institutional Characteristics and TheCenter Measures includes state location,
highest degree offered, medical school and land grant status, research focus (summary of federal research by discipline), and total student enrollment. Also presented is the number of times a university ranks in the top 25 (or 26–50) on the nine quality measures this year (2001 Report) as compared to last year (2000 Report). • Student Characteristics provides headcount enrollment data broken out by level (i.e., undergraduate, graduate, first-professional), parttime enrollment by level, and degrees awarded. Data found in these tables may not always match the figures published by the original source. TheCenter makes adjustments, when necessary, to ensure that the data reflect the activity at a single campus rather than that of a multiple campus institution or state university system. When data are missing from the original source, TheCenter may substitute another figure if available. A full discussion of this subject, and the various adjustments or substitutions made to the original data, is in the Data Notes section of this report. The prior year’s ranks may differ slightly from our last report due to revised figures or estimates from the data source or institution. TheCenter’s website [http://thecenter.ufl.edu] provides these same tables in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets for ease of analysis. In addition, similar tables containing data on all institutions with any federal research in 1999 are available online.

• Private Support and Faculty Quality
includes endowment assets, annual giving, National Academy members, and faculty awards.

• Advanced Training and Undergraduate Quality covers doctorates
granted, postdoctoral appointees, SAT scores, and National Merit and Achievement Scholars. • Change provides trend data on federal research (1990 and 1999) and endowment assets (1994 and 2000) in constant dollars, and student headcount enrollment (1990 and 1999).

Part III The Top 200 Institutions
The following tables list the top 200 universities and colleges on each of the nine performance measures, along with National Merit and Achievement Scholars. (The Source Notes section provides detailed information on each of the ten data elements.) Unlike the previous tables in Parts I and II, this section includes data for all academic institutions regardless of their federal research activity level. TheCenter provides each institution’s rank nationally among all universities as well as its rank by institutional control (i.e., rank among private or public peers). In cases where several institutions tie for last place, we use a different cutoff point. For National Academy members, we list all institutions with at least one National Academy member among their faculty (a total of 186 institutions). In the case of faculty awards, we limit institutions to those with at least three faculty awards (a total of 198 universities and colleges) because an additional 84 institutions tie for 199th place. Tables in this section include:

Data found in these tables may not always match the figures published by the original source. TheCenter makes adjustments, when necessary, to ensure that the data reflect the activity at a single campus rather than that of a multiple campus institution or state university system. When data are missing from the original source, TheCenter may substitute another figure if available. A full discussion of this subject, and the various adjustments or substitutions made to the original data, is in the Data Notes section of this report. TheCenter presents these tables, along with the prior year’s top 200, as Microsoft Excel spreadsheets online at [http://thecenter.ufl.edu].

TheCenter Measures
Total Research Expenditures Federal Research Expenditures
Source: NSF/SRS Survey of R&D Expenditures at Universities and Colleges, FY 1999.

Each year, the National Science Foundation (NSF) collects data from hundreds of academic institutions on expenditures for research and development in science and engineering fields and classifies them by source of funds (e.g. federal government, state and local government, industry, etc.). These data are the primary source of information on academic R&D expenditures in the U.S. Included in this survey are all activities specifically organized to produce research outcomes that are separately budgeted and accounted for. This “organized research” may be funded by an external agency or organization (“sponsored research”) or by a separately budgeted organizational unit within the institution (“university research”). This report excludes activities sponsored by external agencies that involve instruction, training (except training in research techniques, which is considered organized research), and health service, community service, or extension service projects. All Federally Funded Research Labs (FFRLs) are excluded from these academic expenditures data, including the following: Jet Propulsion Laboratory (California Institute of Technology); Los Alamos National Lab, Lawrence Livermore Lab, Lawrence Berkeley Lab (University of California); Software Engineering Institute (Carnegie Mellon); Argonne National Laboratory (University of Chicago); National Astronomy and Ionospheric Center (Cornell); Ames Laboratory (Iowa State University); Lincoln Laboratory (MIT); Plasma Physics Lab (Princeton); and Linear Accelerator Center (Stanford). The NSF data no longer classify the Applied Physics Lab (APL) at Johns Hopkins as an FFRL, but federal funds support the vast majority of research conducted there. The APL makes up about one-half of Johns Hopkins total R&D expenditures and 54 percent of their federal R&D expenditures.

While inconsistencies in reporting (known and unknown) do exist here, as in any survey of this type, problems arise mostly when one breaks out the data by source of funds. NSF expects institutions to use year-end accounting records to complete this report, and there are nationally recognized accounting guidelines for higher education institutions. However, there are also countless variations in institutional policy that determine whether the university reports a particular expenditure as coming from one source or another, or possibly not counted at all. Take federal formula funds for agriculture (e.g. Hatch-McIntire, Smith-Lever) as an example. We conducted an informal survey of the appropriate institutions in the Association of American Universities (AAU) and found that two out of eleven land grants did not include any of these federal funds in their 1997 NSF data, while others included all or some of these monies. Because these funds make up a very small percentage of the total research expenditures in any given year, the impact on our total research rankings is slight. It will have a somewhat greater, but still small, impact on the federal research rankings. NSF notes, “An increasing number of institutions have linkages with industry and foundations via subcontracts, thus complicating the identification of funding source. In addition, institutional policy may determine whether unrestricted state support is reported as state or as institutional funds.”1 We believe that the reporting inconsistencies in the data are relatively minor when using the total research expenditures and the federal research component. Federal and state government audits of institutional accounting make deceptive practices highly unlikely, even though these entities do not audit the NSF data directly. NSF goes to great lengths to verify the accuracy of the data, especially federal expenditure data — checking them against several other federal agencies that collect the same or similar information.

In fact, all major federal agencies and their subdivisions submit data to NSF identifying research obligations to universities each year. Historically, the NSF data have tracked very closely the data reported by universities.2 Further, for their National Patterns of R&D Resources series, NSF prefers to use the figures reported by the performers of the work (that is, academic institutions, industry, nonprofits) because they believe that the performers are in the best position to accurately report these expenditures. In some sections of this report, these expenditure data are deflated to constant 1998 dollars to show real change over time. While NSF uses the Gross Domestic Price (GDP) implicit price deflator in its reports on federal trends in research, we use the Research & Development Price Index (R&DPI) because of its narrower focus. Developed by Research Associates of Washington, the R&DPI is based upon prices of goods and services bought by universities through current direct expenditures for sponsored research, including faculty salary data as reported by the American Association of University Professors (AAUP).3 In contrast, the GDP implicit price deflator is based upon change in the entire U.S. economy and, as noted by NSF itself, “[its] use more accurately reflects an “opportunity cost” criterion [i.e., the value of R&D in terms of the amount of other goods and services that could have been spent with the same amount of money], rather than a measure of cost changes of doing research.”4 The federal research trend data always reflect the most recent published data available, because NSF allows institutions to submit revised figures for up to two years. Each year, NSF reports data for the current year as well as for the previous seven years. Therefore, we use the 1999 Survey data for fiscal years 1992–99, the 1998 Survey for FY 1991 data, and the 1997 Survey for FY 1990 data. If an institution reports in any

one of these three surveys, they are included in this ten-year federal data set. NSF’s published nationwide totals for federal academic R&D expenditures will not always match the corresponding totals in this study due to NSF’s sampling procedures for smaller or non-reporting institutions. In some years, rather than identifying the institutions individually, NSF provides one aggregate figure for all sampled institutions.

Endowment Assets
Source: NACUBO Endowment Study as reported in the Chronicle of Higher Education, endowment market value as of June 30, 2000.

Institutions report the market value of their endowment assets as of June 30 to three different sources, and they quite often use three different values. For this project, we use the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO) Endowment Study because of NACUBO’s long history of reporting endowments of higher education institutions, their emphasis on using audited financial statements, and their focus on net assets (i.e., includes returns on investments and excludes investment fees and other withdrawals). NACUBO conducts its study annually and reports the results each February in the Chronicle of Higher Education. Another source for endowment assets is the Council for Aid to Education’s (CAE) annual Voluntary Support of Education (VSE) survey, cosponsored by the Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE) and the National Association of Independent Schools. The VSE survey is useful as a secondary resource because it provides more single-campus data than the other two sources. For those institutions that report a system-wide total to NACUBO, we often use the VSE data to calculate a campus’ percentage contribution to the entire system, applying that factor to the NACUBO figure. In other cases, we may substitute the VSE figure when the institution indicates that this is a good data source. The NCES IPEDS Finance Survey also collects information on endowment assets, but these figures

Page 130

Source Notes

are often much lower than the two other sources and also are available much later. Although IPEDS instructions say to report endowment assets for “the institution and any of its foundations or affiliated organizations,” it appears that not all institutions do so. The fact that the NACUBO study requests net assets, while IPEDS and the VSE survey request gross assets, cannot explain the large differences found in some cases. In calling various institutions, we found it very difficult to determine exactly why the numbers vary so greatly. Oftentimes, two or more individuals at an institution independently report figures for these three reports with no clear understanding of how or why the numbers differ. An examination of the 1997 endowment figures provided by these institutions showed only one university (University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill) that submitted the same figure to each of the three organizations. We discovered no consistent pattern to explain reporting variations among the institutions. This area definitely warrants more study.

Annual Giving

One of the highest honors that academic faculty can receive is membership in the National Academy of Sciences (NAS), the National Academy of Engineering (NAE), or the Institute of Medicine (IOM). All three are private, nonprofit organizations and serve as advisors to the federal government on science, technology, and medicine. Nominated and voted on by active members, newly elected members of these organizations receive life terms. Individuals elected to membership come from all sectors — academia, industry, government, and not-forprofit agencies or organizations. Member election dates are in February (NAE), April (NAS), and October (IOM). The data collected for these rankings use active or emeritus members at their affiliated work institution, as reported in the online membership directories. In all cases, we were able to determine the specific campus for individual members. We re-check institutional affiliation annually to account for established members who have changed employers or whose membership is no longer active.

The Council for Aid to Education, an independent subsidiary of RAND, has produced the Voluntary Support of Education (VSE) Survey since 1986. The annual giving data include all contributions actually received during the institution’s fiscal year in the form of cash, securities, company products, and other property from alumni, non-alumni individuals, corporations, foundations, religious organizations, and other groups. Not included in the totals are public funds, earnings on investments held by the institution, and unfulfilled pledges. CAE’s VSE Data Miner service provides the last 10 years of data on all participating institutions online. Although this is a subscription-based service and requires a user ID and password, limited access is available at http://www.cae.org/vse/.

Each campus in our study submits degree data by campus, except for the few institutions identified in our Data Notes section. All of these institutions exclusively or primarily offer doctoral degrees at the main campus. In addition to doctorate degrees, TheCenter also presents degrees awarded at other levels — associate’s, bachelor’s, master’s, and professional degrees — in the Student Characteristics table (see Data Tables, pp. 80).

Doctorates Awarded
Source: NCES IPEDS Completions Survey, doctoral degrees awarded between July 1, 1999 and June 30, 2000.

Each year, universities report their degrees awarded to the National Center for Education Statistics in the IPEDS Completions Survey. IPEDS provides straightforward instructions for reporting doctoral degrees awarded, and we do not find any inconsistencies in reporting among the universities included in our rankings. IPEDS asks each institution to identify the number of Doctor of Education, Doctor of Juridical Science, Doctor of Public Health, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees awarded between July 1 and June 30. The doctorates measure used in last year’s report relies upon 1997–98 data, because that was the most recent data available at that time. Since TheCenter always uses the most current data, for this report we use the 1999–00 doctorates awarded.

Each year, NSF and NIH collect data from all institutions offering graduate programs in any science, engineering, or health field. The Survey of Graduate Students and Postdoctorates in Science and Engineering (also called the Graduate Student Survey or GSS) reflects graduate enrollment and postdoctoral employment at the beginning of the academic year. Postdoctorates are defined in the GSS as “individuals with science and engineering Ph.D.’s, M.D.’s, D.D.S.’s or D.V.M.’s and foreign degrees equivalent to U.S. doctorates who devote their primary effort to their own research training through research activities or study in the department under temporary appointments carrying no academic rank.” The definition excludes clinical fellows and those in medical residency training programs unless the primary purpose of their appointment is for research training under a senior mentor. In the technical notes for this survey, NSF does not mention any potential measurement errors associated with this data item. Although each doctorate-granting campus submits data separately, NSF often aggregates them in its published reports. In all cases, we obtained the single campus data for these schools directly from NSF.

SAT Scores

The College Board reports the middle 50% range of verbal and math SAT I scores for most institutions in our study. The institutions submit these data to the College Board each spring through their Annual

Survey of Colleges. For our measure, we calculated the median of that range. Some institutions report the ACT instead of the SAT to the College Board. In those cases, we used a conversion table provided by The College Board to generate a comparable SAT equivalent score.5 When an institution did not submit either an SAT or ACT score, we substituted data from the prior year reported.

outstanding students, it is also an indicator that is sensitive to institutional policies on financial aid. Because the number of Merit Scholars is small, relatively small changes in institutional aid policies can have a significant impact on the number of National Merit Scholars enrolling in institutions. The average SAT score provides a broader based and more reliable measure of overall undergraduate quality, and for those reasons we prefer the SAT scores to the number of National Merit and Achievement Scholars as an indicator of undergraduate quality.

Institutional Characteristics
Medical Schools
Source: NCES IPEDS Completions Survey, M.D. degrees awarded between July 1, 1999 and June 30, 2000.

The National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC) is an independent, non-profit organization that awards scholarships to the nation’s outstanding high school seniors based on their academic achievement, qualifying test scores, high school principal and counselor recommendations, and their activities, interests, and goals. The NMSC names approximately 14,000 National Merit Finalists each February. Of these, about one-half will receive a National Merit $2,500 Scholarship, a corporate-sponsored scholarship, or a collegesponsored scholarship. National Achievement Scholars are selected and funded in a similar fashion and represent the nation’s outstanding African-American students. Ideally, the National Hispanic Scholars Program should also be included in this category, but they do not track the enrollment of their scholarship winners. Should they do so in the future, we will include these students in TheCenter’s data. In this study, Merit and Achievement scholarships are credited to the main campus if the National Merit Scholarship Corporation Annual Report does not indicate a branch campus. While the number of National Merit and National Achievement award winners in the entering class provides an indication of the attractiveness of a university’s undergraduate program to

Although the IPEDS Institutional Characteristics Survey does have a “medical” field that indicates whether an institution grants a medical degree, we chose not to use their data because it includes medical degrees in Veterinary Medicine. For our measure, we determined whether a particular campus awarded any M.D. degrees during the academic year. If the institution did not submit any data to IPEDS for that year, we then looked at whether they are accredited by the American Medical Association to determine whether the institution has a medical school.

Land Grant Institutions
Source: National Association of State Universities and Land Grant Colleges.

The first Morrill Act in 1862 appropriated federal funds for universities to provide agricultural and technical education to its citizens. A second Morrill Act in 1890 expanded eligibility to include several historically black colleges and universities, and in 1994 several Native American tribal colleges were recognized as land grant institutions. Today, there is at least one land grant institution in each state and U.S. territory and in the District of Columbia. Of the 105 institutions, most are public universities. Federal land grant institutions receive both federal and state dollars in support of their agricultural and extension activities.

T h e To p A m e r i c a n R e s e a r c h U n i v e r s i t i e s

Page 133

While land grant status technically applies to some university systems, such as the University of California and the University of Nebraska, for our study we designate as land grant institutions only those schools (e.g., UC-Davis, UC-Riverside, and Nebraska-Lincoln) that actually perform that function. In these cases, the land grant field will identify whether an institution is part of a system-wide land grant and whether the vast majority of the activity occurs on that campus. For example, UC-Davis is coded as a “Yes-System” while UCLA is coded as “No-System.” We consider the 1890 institutions as land grant institutions, but we identify them separately because they do not perform extension activities.

Research Focus
Source: NSF/SRS Survey of R&D Expenditures at Universities and Colleges, FY 1999.

In addition to reporting expenditure data by source of funds, NSF also identifies in what major disciplines the money is expended. In the Research table (Data Tables, pp. 50), we provide the proportion of federal expenditures in each discipline for those institutions with over $20 million in federal research. Since our last report, some institutions have expressed a desire to compare themselves to schools similar to themselves. This is an additional element that TheCenter provides to assist them in developing groups of institutions for peer analysis. The Institutional Characteristics table (Data Tables, pp. 74) provides a summary measure of an institution’s research strength and concentration based upon these disciplinelevel expenditures. Universities with 95–100% of their federal research dollars spent in one particular discipline are coded as “all.” We identify institutions with 75–94% in one area as “heavy,” and we label those with 50–74% of their expenditures concentrated as “strong.” Other universities with 25–49% in one or more disciplines we describe as “moderate” (A few institutions (but none in the over $20 million group) have expenditures distributed fairly evenly across the disciplines and those we code as “mixed.”

In some cases, where an institution reports as a multi-campus entity, we made adjustments to break out the discipline-level expenditure data by single campus. Typically, this involved moving all or a portion of the life sciences expenditures to the health or medical center campus. IPEDS fall enrollment and graduate degrees by discipline data were also used to help in this effort. While these data offer some insight as to the research structure of a university, their usefulness is limited. For example, we may be tempted to use the life sciences as a surrogate for medical research, but we must remember that it also includes agricultural and biological sciences. Further, the growing trend toward multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary projects may make it more difficult for universities to accurately reflect expenditures by discipline or sub-discipline. TheCenter chose not to break out these sub-disciplines, because the data are increasingly prone to error as further adjustments are made.

Student Characteristics
Fall Enrollment
Source: NCES IPEDS Fall Enrollment Survey, 1999.

Each November, institutions report their current fall headcount enrollment to the IPEDS Fall Enrollment Survey. Enrollment figures include both degree seeking and non-degree seeking students. TheCenter provides the headcount enrollment by level as presented by IPEDS, along with the percentage of those attending part-time. Graduate students include those seeking specialist degrees in engineering and education. First professional students include those seeking degrees in medical fields, such as Chiropractic, Dentistry, Medicine, Optometry, Osteopathic Medicine, Pharmacy, Podiatry, and Veterinary Medicine, as well as those seeking degrees in Law and Theology. Each campus in our study submits enrollment data by campus, except for the few institutions identified in our Data Notes section. Because this is an informational item and not one of TheCenter’s nine quality measures, we did not attempt to adjust these figures.

Data Notes
The raw data used for The Top American Research Universities project — obtained from federal agencies and national organizations — often contain information on single campus institutions, multiple campus institutions, and state university systems, without clearly identifying the distinctions. This makes national comparisons difficult and unreliable. To increase the validity and usefulness of these data, TheCenter adjusts the original reported figures, when necessary, to ensure that all data represent the strength of a single-campus institution. TheCenter bases its adjustments upon information gathered from the reporting agency or from the university itself. In cases where the published data represent a single campus, we do not adjust the data. When the data represent more than one campus, we first attempt to obtain a figure directly from NSF (for research expenditures and postdoctorates), from the institution itself, or from the university system office that submitted the data. If unavailable from those primary sources, we use an estimated or substitute figure derived from information found on the institution’s website. As a last resort, we will use prior year data as a substitute. If the institution provides an estimate representing at least 97% of the originally published figure, we credit the full amount to the main campus. Otherwise, we use the estimate provided by the institution. TheCenter does not adjust the private university data because of multi-campus or system-wide reporting. We treat all private universities in this study as single campus institutions, because while some may have multiple campuses, they generally are in or around a single city and considered an integral part of the main campus. Furthermore, private institutions generally do not break out their data by regional, branch, or affiliated campus, as often happens with public institutions. The following tables outline the various adjustments or substitutions that we made to the original data. The tables list institutions alphabetically and include both private and public universities. For the purpose of this report, we provide notes for institutions with more than $20 million in FY 1999 federal research. Data notes for all other research universities are available on TheCenter website [http://thecenter.ufl.edu].
