Dear Colleagues,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are tremendously proud to share that our commitment to investing in high-impact research \u2014 work that improves lives in communities across the state, nation, and world \u2014 helped propel the University of Maryland research enterprise to No. 14 among all U.S. institutions and No. 9 among public institutions in the National Science Foundation\u2019s latest Higher Education Research and Development (HERD)\u00a0survey<\/a><\/strong>, up from No. 18 overall and No. 11 among public institutions the previous year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The University of Maryland, College Park and the University of Maryland, Baltimore are linked as a single research enterprise in the HERD survey, the most widely recognized national benchmark for sponsored research activity, which ranked research and development spending at U.S. institutions in Fiscal Year 2024. This represents one of our highest rankings to date and record combined research expenditures exceeding $1.5 billion \u2014 an increase of more than $154 million from FY23.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This milestone reflects the power of collaboration and a shared commitment to improving lives through research conducted at Maryland\u2019s two premier public universities. By uniting College Park\u2019s leadership in engineering, science, and technology with Baltimore\u2019s strengths in medicine, health, and human services, we are accelerating the translation of discovery into patient care and community benefit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our combined success in the HERD rankings affirms that when we work as one enterprise, we deliver outcomes that truly matter. Our continued growth is a testament to the talent of our faculty, the dedication of our staff and students, and the state\u2019s strong commitment to research that delivers measurable benefits for Maryland and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for all you do to support university research and impact lives across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sincerely, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
