The tables include long-term trend data on doctorate recipients by field; educational pathways to the doctorate and sources of financial support; postgraduation employment plans; and representation of different demographic groups and temporary visa holders among doctorate recipients. Data are also available in an interactive data tool (https://ncsesdata.nsf.gov/builder/sed) and the Restricted Data Analysis System (https://ncsesdata.nsf.gov/rdas/). The SED is sponsored by the National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics within the U.S. National Science Foundation and by three other federal agencies: the National Institutes of Health, Department of Education, and National Endowment for the Humanities. https://ncses.nsf.gov/pubs/nsf26328 Thu, 24 Sep 2026 13:13:40 EDT Federal Facilities Research and Development Survey: Fiscal Year 2025 These data tables are from the FY 2025 Federal Facilities Research and Development (FFRD) Survey. These tables present data on research and experimental development (R&D) expenditures for all federally owned and operated facilities in the United States. This survey is the unique source of federal performer-reported data on R&D expenditures and is conducted by the National Center for Science and Engineering Statistics within the U.S. National Science Foundation.
