  • AND ITS INVESTMENTS in RESEARCH ACTIVITIES Prepared By: Appliedanalysis.Com 
    THE ECONOMIC IMPACTS & BENEFITS OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MEMPHIS AND ITS INVESTMENTS IN RESEARCH ACTIVITIES Prepared By: appliedanalysis.com Preface Applied Analysis is pleased to present this economic impact analysis prepared on behalf of the University of Memphis (the “University”). The primary objective of this analysis is to quantify the economic contributions of the University to the Memphis community and the State of Tennessee as a whole. More specifically, the impact analysis considers the University’s recurring operations, capital investment program and the benefits of the University’s research efforts relative to its goal of achieving the nation’s highest research university classification (R1: Doctoral Universities - Very High Research Activity) as defined by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education® (“Carnegie”). The salient findings of our research and analysis are contained within this report. The economic impacts of the University of Memphis are substantial and far-reaching. While economic impacts are typically characterized by the number of jobs created, wages paid and economic activity generated by an organization, they alone do not tell the full story. This analysis is designed to quantify the data but also demonstrate the direction the University is heading and the investments it is making to increase its contributions to the future. With approximately 6,600 employees, the University is one of Tennessee’s largest employment centers, directly and indirectly impacting the lives of tens of thousands of residents, including 22,000 enrolled students, every day. Perhaps equally important to the traditional impacts is the ripple effect throughout the community, with suppliers to the University benefiting from $190 million in purchases and employees spending $300 million in wages and salaries earned at countless businesses in their respective neighborhoods every year.
