The Survey of Higher Education Faculty: Grants, Research
Funding & Oversight presents data on the prevailing
conditions in obtaining grants and other forms of research
support for higher education faculty in the United States and
Canada. The report gives extensive data on number of
grants applied for this year and last, the percentage of
faculty who currently have funding, the percentage of faculty
who have ever received a grant of more than $10,000 and the
percentage of total grants received accounted for by funds
from US or Canadian federal government sources. Survey
participants also give their impressions of trends in grant
acceptance rates in their disciplines.
The report also covers internal grants, estimating the total
percentage of research support accounted for by transfers
within the college or university itself, and relating which
faculty tend to get these grants. The study also
presents hard figures on the frequency and size of
discretionary grants. In addition, The Survey of Higher
Education Faculty: Grants, Research Funding & Oversight,
gives highly detailed information on faculty supervision of
student research, and faculty participation as referees and
judges for research journals.
The report presents the results of a survey of more than 550
higher education faculty inthe United States and Canada.
Data is presented in the aggregate and for 12 criteria
including academic field, size of college, type of college,
academic title and other factors.
