Who We Serve

These universities are typically R1 or R2 institutions and have made significant investments in growing their sponsored research enterprises. These public and private universities pursue research initiatives that advance their institutional priorities, often by pursuing strategic sponsor and congressional engagement agendas; diverse partnerships; and large and complex grant opportunities.

These institutions are typically private and public institutions with enrollments ranging from 1,000 – 10,000 students. Most blend the tenets of a liberal arts education with professional programs in areas such as allied health, nursing, engineering and education.
