Federal government investment in UM's research accounted for $832 million - 56


percent - of that total, which was a 5 percent increase over the previous year.

"Industry has benefitted greatly from this investment, tapping the talent of the
great majority of graduating students to help translate the ideas and expertise that
arise on campus into products, processes, and services that have changed virtually
all aspects of our lives," UM Vice President for Research S. Jack Hu said in the
report, noting that industry sponsorship at UM grew by 14 percent to a record-high
of more than $106 million.

Among federal expenditures, $544.7 million (65.5 percent) came from the
Department of Health and Human Services, which includes the National Institutes
of Health (NIH), which provided $502 million in 2017, representing a 10 percent
increase over the previous year.

In 2016, a total of $457 million of the $792 million the university received in federal
funding came from the NIH. Funding from the NIH covers a wide range of units at
UM, including its Medical School, its colleges Engineering, Pharmacy, Dentistry
and Nursing and the Institute for Social Research.

The second largest federal government sponsor, the National Science Foundation,
showed an increase of 7 percent to $92 million during the 2017 fiscal year.

Research funding provided by UM also increased in 2017 to $485.5 million - a 6.5


percent increase over its $456 million in expenditures in 2016. Of that total, $248.4
million came from UM's general fund (an 8.9 percent increase over the previous
year), while $130.9 million came from medical school resources. UM's designated
fund for internally funded research decreased by 52.5 percent, however, from
$68.5 million in 2016 to $32.6 million in 2017.

UM's Medical School spent the most of any unit on campus on research during the
2017 fiscal year, accounting for 41 percent of its total expenditures, followed by
the College of Engineering (17 percent) and the College of Literature, Arts &
Sciences (13 percent).

The research also has translated into marketplace, Hu noted, with UM's Office of
Technology Transfer reporting a record-high 444 new inventions and 172 U.S.
patents issued in 2017.
