Expenditures Data
SPONSORED RESEARCH EXPENDITURES
Over the past five years, sponsored project expenditures have consistently increased. In Fiscal Year 2022, Pitt surpassed a landmark of $1 billion, putting Pitt in an elite national cohort of research peers. This achievement represents not the money awarded to researchers but the actual funds spent on research activities. Despite the disruptions to daily life and global supply chains caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, our researchers consistently achieved productivity.
