University Research Expenditure Rankings

There is an interesting ranking of US universities by the National Science Foundation according to total research and development expenditure.

Here are the top ten:

1. Johns Hopkins
2. Wisconsin (Madison)
3. UCLA
4. Minnesota
5. UC San Francisco
6. Washington
7. UC San Diego
8. Stanford
9. University of Pennsylvania
10. Duke

But does spending a lot of money necessarily lead to a high level of research productivity?

    Number 4 is University of Michigan, not Minnesota. Minnesota is number 15

    Appreciating the commitment you put into your site and detailed information you provide.
    It's awesome to come across a blog every once in a while that isn't the same out of date rehashed information. Excellent read! I've bookmarked your site and I'm including your RSS feeds to my Google account.
