CAMPUS University spends $374.9 million on research expenditures By Julia Trowbridge @chapin_jules

Everything seems to be growing at Colorado State Uni- versity. CSU spent $374.9 million on research expenditures the 2018 fiscal year, a 10.8 percent in- crease from last year’s research expenditure of $338.4 million, according to SOURCE. This is the 11th year in a row CSU has increased research expendi- tures “It gets exciting when we see research expenditures go up be- cause that means we’re seeing research funded pretty much across campus, and the impact is broader across the different dis- ciplines,” said Melissa Reynolds, research associate dean for the College of Natural Sciences.
