I wanted to share with you a recent article in the Business Review:
The College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering in Albany was No.1 in the country for research expenditures funded by business in fiscal year 2013.
That's according to a report out last week from the National Science Foundation.
The nanocollege received $201.6 million in research and development expenditures from business, a piece of the college's $374.2 million in total research expenditures for 2013. About 53.9 percent of the research expenditures at the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering were funded by businesses, compared with the national average of 5.2 percent.
In 2013, the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering was a part of the University at Albany. Last year, the nanocollege merged with a separate SUNY campus after splitting from UAlbany to create SUNY Polytechnic Institute.
