Key Indicators of Research and Sponsored Activity

The data below reflects not only our performance during the 2024-2025 fiscal year but also broader, multi-year trends that demonstrate the impact of California State University, Fullerton’s strategic plans. These metrics highlight how the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs supports the university’s commitment to expanding research, scholarly, and creative activities while strengthening the infrastructure that enables them.

By presenting key indicators related to external funding, internal funding, expenditures, proposal submissions, and compliance, we aim to provide a transparent summary of ORSP’s activities and progress in these critical areas.
