The
University of California, Berkeley is
one of the
world's leading universities in research, teaching, and public service,
with an enrollment of over 23,000 undergraduates and 9,300 graduate
students. The campus employs 1,800 faculty in more than 130 academic
departments and interdepartmental groups, and more than 40 interdisciplinary
research units contribute to this dynamic and vital research and teaching
environment.
Each
year UC Berkeley receives substantial contract and grant support
for research, education, and public service projects from federal
and state agencies, foreign governments, foundations and other nonprofit
organizations, industry sponsors, and other private sources. In
fiscal year 2003, the campus received 1,386 new awards and funding
over $461 million.
Award
information is captured in two ways; by project periods (the total
amount of the award) and by budget periods (the amounts of the individual
budget periods). Budget period funding data is captured for all
years of an award, which includes future years. In fiscal year 2003,
the campus received $441.2 million in budget period funding, slightly
lower than project period funding of $461.9 million.
