Area is proportional to spend. The nine science and engineering fields sum to the total; non-S&E spend — the law school and the business school — is left out.
Total R&D ÷ research doctorates awarded. Funding depth per doctoral student.
Research run per PI. A large school can outspend a small one and still run less per lab.
5,306 full-time academic staff
One square = 25 staff.
93 more instructional staff are part-time, not counted above.
IPEDS splits instruction from research inconsistently between schools, so the parent total here is all full-time academic staff rather than instructional faculty alone.
