This study looks at how research oriented college and university faculty evaluate the research office entrusted with helping them to win and manage grants from funding sources such as the National Institutes of Health, National Science Foundation and many other public and private sources. The report provides specific data sets on faculty satisfaction with research office help on finding grants, writing grants, provision of grants or funding databases, and help with one own university’s funding sources and initiatives to complement outside sources. In an open ended question, survey participants discuss what they would most like to see from their research offices.
Just a few of this report’s many findings are that:
- Faculty at public institutions generally gave more favorable ratings than those at private institutions, particularly in areas like knowledge of fellowships and grant writing support.
- Larger and mid-sized institutions generally received better ratings than smaller institutions, likely reflecting more resources and services available to faculty at these larger universities.
- 18.52% of respondents felt that their research offices had an “excellent” knowledge of proposal writing.
The data in the report is based on a survey of 378 higher education faculty drawn from a stratified universe of faculty emphasizing STEM faculty. Data is broken out by numerous institutional and personal variables including college or university type, size, and public/private status, as well as by personal respondent level of lifetime grant receipts, age, gender, work title and academic field. Data is broken out for 20 subject areas, and separately for research universities, doctoral institutions, BA and community colleges.
