Why Florida’s Future Is Brighter With UF Hitting the $1 Billion Mark in Research Spending

The University of Florida’s research enterprise achieved a major milestone this year when, for the first time, annual research spending surpassed $1 billion.

There are only about 15 public universities in the U.S. that have achieved this mark — an accomplishment that highlights not only the excellence of UF’s faculty, staff, and students but also the commitment of the institution to pursue meaningful research that impacts the state, nation, and world.

While $1 billion a year in research is a remarkable feat, it is the impact of our research in advancing knowledge, creating new technologies, and powering Florida’s economy that really counts.
