Research funding expenditures
Research expenditures are for activities funded from all sources that are specifically organized to produce research outcomes, including individual and/or project research as well as those of institutes and research centers. Values are not adjusted for inflation. Data are from the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS).
Degrees in STEM and health fields
Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) and Health fields are defined using the following Classification of Instructional Program (CIP) 2010 areas: Agricultural Sciences (01.0308, 01.09, 01.10, 01.11, 01.12), Natural Resources and Conservation (03), Computer Science and Info Systems (11), Engineering (14), Engineering Technology (15), Life/Biological Science (26), Mathematics and Statistics (27), Physical Science (40), Multi/Interdisciplinary Studies (30.27), and Health (51).
UW STEM and health degrees are offered at the bachelor’s and graduate/professional levels. UW-Platteville does not currently offer degrees in health programs. UW Colleges does not offer a STEM or health degree, but provides the foundation for students interested in STEM or health majors through a certificate program and areas of emphasis in STEM or health-related fields. UW and national proportions are based on bachelor’s and graduate/professional level degrees. National proportions are based on public four-year institutions.

Projected employment in STEM and health occupations is available from the Wisconsin Department of Workforce Development.
Small business development center clients
Clients are counted at each UW institution served during each year. The Wisconsin Business AnswerLine (BAL) specialty center is combined with UW-Madison’s local SBDC center. The Wisconsin Innovation Service Center (WISC) is combined with UW-Whitewater’s local SBDC center. UW-Stout’s numbers reflect the Center for Innovation and Development (CID) specialty center. UW-Stout conducts most of its business development and support through the UW-Stout Discovery Center (not shown), part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology Manufacturing and Extension Partnership program. UW-Stout does not have a local SBDC center. Beginning in January 2016, service to southwestern Wisconsin transferred from UW-Platteville to UW-Extension.
