1. Choose State
 
                   
NOTES:                    
1.  State-level university R&D data have not been adjusted to eliminate double counting of funds passed through from one 
academic institution to another. At the national level, funds passed through to educational subrecipients account for   
3.3% of total R&D expenditures reported by universities and colleges in FY2005.         
2.  R&D intensity is ratio of total R&D performed in a state to its GDP.           
3.  Nonfederal sources of R&D expenditures reported by FFRDCs in FY2005 included state and local governments   
($32 million), industry ($129 million), FFRDC institutional funds ($60 million), and other sources ($136 million).   
4.  Industry sources of industry R&D expenditures include all nonfederal sources of industry R&D expenditures.   
5.  Sum of state totals differ from U.S. sector totals for four reasons: some R&D expenditures cannot be allocated to 1 of 50 
states or District of Columbia; nonfederal sources of other nonprofit R&D expenditures could not be allocated by state;   
state-level U&C data have not been adjusted to eliminate double counting of funds passed through from one academic   
institution to another; and state-level R&D data are not converted from fiscal years to calendar years.
