Note: The total number of faculty engaged in research (1,132) represents the total number of faculty who are Principal Investigators conducting research (at least one active award) at UCLA during the 2009-10 academic year.

Based on the University’s policy for individuals who are automatically eligible to serve as a Principal Investigator, this is a portion (~ 62.5%) of the 1,812 listed in the AIM report as “Regular Rank Teaching Faculty-Ladder/Acting (Professor, Assoc. Professor, and Assistant Professor and Emeritus).

We recognize that many more than 149 people are conducting or are engaged in sustainability-related research here at UCLA. For the purposes of this inventory only, and based on the data available, we limited our scope to those with a faculty title. We were not able to include those in other positions including; Researcher, Postdoctoral Researcher, Lecturer, Clinical, In Residence, Adjunct, Visting and other titles.

We are very grateful to Rory Constancio, Director of Office of Business & Financial Services and Director of Research Data Management, and his staff in the Office of Research Administration for their invaluable assistance.
