This is a list of universities in the United States classified among research universities in the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. This defines research institutions as those that spend more than $2.5 million on research and development, and assigns these institutions to one of three research designations based on total research expenditures and (for the higher two designations) production of research doctorates.

== History == The 1994 edition of the Carnegie Classification defined Research I universities as those that:

* Offer a full range of baccalaureate programs * Are committed to graduate education through the doctorate * Give high priority to research * Award 50 or more doctoral degrees each year * Receive annually $40 million or more in federal support<ref>{{cite web|author=University of Washington|title=Carnegie Research I Universities|url=http://math.la.asu.edu/~kuang/ResearchI.html|accessdate=2009-03-18|archive-date=2009-03-06|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090306033451/http://math.la.asu.edu/~kuang/ResearchI.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

The Carnegie Foundation reported that 59 institutions met these criteria in 1994.<ref>David Weerts, ''State Governments and Research Universities: A Framework for a Renewed Partnership''. New York: Routledge, 2002, p. 26.</ref>

In their interim 2000 edition of the classification, the Carnegie Foundation renamed the category to ''Doctoral/research universities-extensive'' in order to avoid the inference that the categories signify quality differences."<ref name="carnegie">{{cite web|author=Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching|title=Carnegie Classifications FAQs|url=http://classifications.carnegiefoundation.org/resources/faqs.php|url-status=dead|accessdate=2012-02-09|archiveurl=https://archive.today/20130414134203/http://classifications.carnegiefoundation.org/resources/faqs.php|archivedate=2013-04-14}}</ref> The foundation replaced their single classification system with a multiple classification system in their 2005 comprehensive overhaul of the classification framework <ref name="carnegie" /><ref>{{cite web|author=Educause|title=Appendix E: Carnegie Classification (2000) Definitions|url=http://net.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/pub8003l.pdf|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090327110251/http://net.educause.edu/ir/library/pdf/pub8003l.pdf|archive-date=2009-03-27|accessdate=2009-03-18}}</ref> so that the term "Research I university" was no longer valid, though many universities continued to use it.

In 2015, the Carnegie Classification System reinstated the "Research I university" designations along with "Research II" and "Research III." The system in use from 2018, included the following three categories for doctoral universities:<ref name="2018_basic_description">{{Cite web|date=2019|title=Basic Classification Description|url=http://carnegieclassifications.iu.edu/classification_descriptions/basic.php|publisher=Center for Postsecondary Research|accessdate=March 18, 2019|archive-date=August 11, 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160811041453/http://carnegieclassifications.iu.edu/classification_descriptions/basic.php|url-status=live}}</ref>

* R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity * R2: Doctoral Universities – High research activity * D/PU: Doctoral/Professional Universities

In the 2018 classification, institutions were classified as either R1 or R2 if they "conferred at least 20 research/scholarship doctorates in 2016-17 and reported at least $5 million in total research expenditures."<ref name="2018_basic_description" /> A "research activity index" was then calculated that included the following measures:

* Research & development (R&D) expenditures in science and engineering (S&E) * R&D expenditures in non-S&E fields * S&E research staff (postdoctoral appointees and other non-faculty research staff with doctorates) * Doctoral conferrals in humanities, social science, STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) fields, and in other fields (e.g., business, education, public policy, social work)

These four measures were combined using principal component analysis to create two indices of research activity, one representing an aggregate level of research activity and the other representing per-capita research activity. Institutions that were high on both indices were classified among "R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity."<ref name="2018_basic_description" />

In the 2025 classification, all institutions with more than $2.5 million in research expenditure were classified into three "Research Activity Designations": * Research 1: Very High Research Spending and Doctorate Production (R1) * Research 2: High Research Spending and Doctorate Production (R2) * Research Colleges and Universities (RCU)

This revision also introduced a clear threshold for R1 classification, replacing the 10-metric score that had been used since 2005: (1) have $50 million in total annual research expenditures, and (2) grant 70 research doctorates per year. The threshold for R2 classification remained: (1) have $5 million in total annual research expenditures, and (2) grant 20 research doctorates per year. In both cases, the thresholds are taken as the higher of the most recent year or a three-year rolling average. Institutions that did not meet either the R1 or R2 thresholds but did have more than $2.5 million in research expenditure were classified as RCUs, without any requirement for awarding research doctorates. The titles for R1 and R2 were also changed, with the words "research activity" replaced by "research spending and doctorate production".<ref>{{cite web|title=Carnegie Classifications to Make Major Changes in How Colleges and Universities Are Grouped and Recognized, Set Clear Threshold for Highest Level of Research |url=https://www.acenet.edu/News-Room/Pages/Carnegie-Classifications-to-Make-Major-Changes.aspx|publisher=American Council on Education|accessdate=2024-01-03|archive-date=2023-12-20|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231220142215/https://www.acenet.edu/News-Room/Pages/Carnegie-Classifications-to-Make-Major-Changes.aspx|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/carnegie-classification/classification-methodology/2025-research-activity-designations/research-designations-faqs/|title= 2025 Research Activity Designations FAQs|website=Carnegie Classifications|access-date=30 December 2025}}</ref>

== Universities classified among "R2: Doctoral Universities – High research spending and doctorate production" == There are 140 institutions that are classified among "R2: Doctoral Universities – High research spending and doctorate production" in the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education as of the 2025 update.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education® |url=https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/ |access-date=2025-02-17 |website=Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education |language=en-US}}</ref>

The R2 designation indicates that, on average, the university spends at least $5 million a year on research and development and awards at least 20 research doctorates.<ref>{{Cite web |title=2025 Research Activity Designations |url=https://carnegieclassifications.acenet.edu/carnegie-classification/classification-methodology/2025-research-activity-designations/ |access-date=2025-12-14 |website=Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education |language=en-US}}</ref>

Prior to the 2025 update, the R2 designation was assigned to universities with a high level of aggregate research activity or per capita research activity (or both), but not a very high level in either.<ref name="BCM" /> {| class="wikitable sortable" |+Doctoral Universities – High research activity !Institution !Control !City !State |- |Abilene Christian University |Private (non-profit) |Abilene |TX |- | Air Force Institute of Technology Graduate School of Engineering & Management|| Public ||Wright-Patterson AFB||OH |- | Albert Einstein College of Medicine||Private (non-profit)||Bronx||NY |- |Appalachian State University || Public || Boone || NC |- | Arkansas State University||Public||Jonesboro||AR |- | Augusta University||Public||Augusta||GA |- | Azusa Pacific University||Private (non-profit)||Azusa||CA |- | Ball State University||Public||Muncie||IN |- | Boise State University||Public||Boise||ID |- | Bowling Green State University||Public||Bowling Green||OH |- | California State Polytechnic University, Pomona||Public||Pomona||CA |- | California State University, Fresno||Public||Fresno||CA |- | California State University, Fullerton||Public||Fullerton||CA |- | California State University, Long Beach||Public||Long Beach||CA |- |California State University, Los Angeles |Public |Los Angeles |CA |- |California State University, Sacramento |Public |Sacramento |CA |- | Central Michigan University||Public||Mount Pleasant||MI |- | Chapman University||Private (non-profit)||Orange||CA |- | Claremont Graduate University||Private (non-profit)||Claremont||CA |- | Clark Atlanta University||Private (non-profit)||Atlanta||GA |- | Clark University||Private (non-profit)||Worcester||MA |- | Clarkson University||Private (non-profit)||Potsdam||NY |- | Cleveland State University||Public||Cleveland||OH |- | Creighton University||Private (non-profit)||Omaha||NE |- | CUNY City College||Public||New York{{efn|group=R2|name=Manhattan|"New York" is the U.S. Postal Service designation for the New York City borough of Manhattan.}} ||NY |- |CUNY Hunter College |Public |New York{{efn|group=R2|name=Manhattan}} |NY |- |Delaware State University || Public{{efn|group=R2|Defined in state law as a "privately governed, state-assisted" institution.}} || Dover || DE |- | DePaul University||Private (non-profit)||Chicago||IL |- | Duquesne University||Private (non-profit)||Pittsburgh||PA |- | East Tennessee State University||Public||Johnson City||TN |- |East Texas A&M University || Public || Commerce || TX |- | Eastern Michigan University||Public||Ypsilanti||MI |- |Eastern Virginia Medical School (EVMS ceased being a separate institution on July 1, 2024.
