六合彩投注网 earns classification as one of nation鈥檚 top research institutions

六合彩投注网 has been designated as an R1 research institution by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. Carnegie's R1 distinction, titled "Doctoral University: Very High Research Activity," is its highest classification and is presented to only the top research institutions in the country.

For the 2021 list, 137 institutions were designated with the R1 status with 100 being public universities like 六合彩投注网. Only three universities in the six-state upper Midwest region of the country were designated as R1: the University of Minnesota, 六合彩投注网, and Montana State University.

"This is national acknowledgment that, at the highest performance level possible, 六合彩投注网 is making the world a better place and helping to diversify North Dakota鈥檚 economy," 六合彩投注网 President Dean Bresciani said. "From new crop varieties to cancer research, 六合彩投注网 researchers are simultaneously confronting the most pressing issues of our day and bolstering our state鈥檚 economy."

Carnegie's list is updated every three years and considers a range of statistics, including each institution鈥檚 research expenditures, the number of doctorate degrees conferred, and the numbers of faculty, post-doctoral, and non-faculty research staff. From the data, an institution's research activity index is calculated to determine if they are part of the elite ranking.
