NSF reports this R&D across all campuses in one row, so the figure is not Texas A&M University-College Station alone and is excluded from the national ranking. Area is proportional to spend; the nine science and engineering fields sum to the total.
3,553 full-time academic staff
One square = 20 staff.
718 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.
