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 fiscal year 2001.

This is the same dollar cutoff used in our last three

reports.

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 54 institutions (28 private,

26 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 32 institutions (6 private,

26 public) that rank 26 through 50 nationally on at

least one of the nine measures.

? The Top Private Research Universities (1-25)

identifies the 35 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 45 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 18 private and 37

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 35 institutions in the Top Private

Research Universities (1-25) table, 28 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 prior

years’ top universities, in Microsoft Excel spreadsheets

on its Web site [http://thecenter.ufl.edu]
