ABOUT THIS

REPORT

Research at Arizona’s public universities infused more than $1.2 billion into Arizona’s economy in 2017, drawing our enterprise closer to our strategic goal of $1.6 billion by 2025. This aggressive goal significantly impacts Arizona’s economy, competitiveness and growth. It also helps attract more businesses to our state and impacts the tax base for our state.

To ensure the continued growth of the research enterprise at Arizona’s public universities, the Arizona Board of Regents has set aggressive goals as part of its strategic plan. Increases in research activity, invention disclosures, and licenses and options translate to important benefits for our state and the world around us.

The Arizona Board of Regents 2017 Annual Research Report delivers an engaging report about the impact and depth of our multidisciplinary, collaborative and ground-breaking research. We look forward to the continued growth of the research enterprise and the enduring impact it has on individuals and the vitality of our state.
