Columbus, OH - According to SSTI, "The United States is home to some of the world's most prestigious universities, each performing critical research that helps advance the country’s innovation economy. However, these universities are not evenly distributed across the country; many are concentrated within large cities in states where their spillover further impacts the local economies. This edition of Useful Stats explores Higher Education Research and Development (HERD) Survey data from the newest fiscal year (FY) 2022 data release. Specifically, a state and institution-level look at HERD expenditures over the last decade of available data will be conducted to explore any trends."
Research and development (R&D) expenditures neared $100 billion across the U.S. in FY 2022, a 9% increase from FY 2021’s $89.8 billion and a 46% increase from FY 2013’s $67.1 billion.
Twenty-seven states had higher education R&D expenditures totaling over $1 billion in FY 2022, while an additional nine states and Washington, D.C. had less than a billion but more than half a million. The remaining 14 states and Puerto Rico had between $100-500 million in HERD expenditures.
California had the highest HERD expenditures of any state or territory at $12.1 billion—over 12% of the national total—while New York and Texas followed behind with $8.3 and $7.4 billion, respectively. Two additional states, Pennsylvania and Maryland, were the only others with over $5 billion in HERD expenditures.
Figure 1, below, shows a map of the U.S. with total HERD values by state for the past decade of available data.
