CU Boulder again attracted record levels of research funding this year—$658 million in gifts and awards, including $474 million from federal agencies—to power its research and innovation enterprise. Our research funding totals serve as a milepost to assess and compare our productivity with other top research universities, but they reflect only part of the impact of our babyֱapp, students, staff and partners.
In addition to our continued growth in world-class sponsored research, CU Boulder remains home to a vibrant ecosystem of discovery, collaboration and innovation that cannot be measured in dollars. This rich combination of research, scholarship and creative work is vital to CU Boulder’s appeal to top babyֱapp and researchers in a range of disciplines, the most promising students across the world, and a wide variety of leading organizations who choose to partner with us to achieve greater impact.
From environmental sciences to music, from space to the social sciences, and from education to quantum science and technology, CU Boulder is making a difference.
