Abstract	This statistical report provides data tables on the University of South Florida System's (USF's) financial resources, personnel, enrollment, undergraduate education, graduate education, and research & economic development. Highlights of USF's achievements in the 2013-2014 academic year include: (1) In Tampa, USF celebrated its strongest freshman class ever, the Class of 2017, with an average GPA of 4.0 and SAT score of 1200; (2) During the 2013-14 academic year, USF in Tampa again broke institutional records with a 63 percent graduation rate; (3) In 2013-14, 51 percent of the USF System's undergraduate degrees were awarded in areas of strategic emphasis, including 21 percent in STEM; In graduate degrees, 69 percent of our degrees were in areas of strategic emphasis, including 27 percent in STEM; (4) One of 40 public research universities nationwide designated as both "very high research activity" and "community engaged" by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, USF is classified in the top tier of research universities, a distinction attained by only 2.3 percent of all universities. USF moved up this year to 43rd in the nation for total research expenditures among all U.S. universities, public or private (#27 among all public universities), and 2nd in Florida, and was awarded a record $467M in research contracts and grants, an increase of nearly $15M; (5) As federal funding has waned, USF has proactively worked to increase funding through private partnerships (3.9 percent increase from last year) and state and local government (13.1 percent increase) and to increase both grant proposals submitted by USF researchers (8 percent increase from last year) and dollars requested (14.3 percent increase)--a strategy that led to record-breaking award dollars in 2013-14; (6) Of USF's total $428M in external research funding in 2014, nearly half came from community partnerships, mostly from private or foundation partners; (7) Service-learning opportunities are now available to students starting with their first year courses and continuing through upper-level and graduate seminars; in 2013-14, 188 service learning course sections were offered at USF, serving 4,013 students; (8) During 2013-14, USF in Tampa completely revamped its Career Services operation--recognizing the important value of increased engagement on both student success and the institution's reputation; and (9) Through a partnership among the USF Tampa College of Business, the USF Sarasota-Manatee College of Business, and the Small Business Development Network, a regional Small Business Development Center (SBDC) opened at the teaching site at USF Sarasota-Manatee at North Port.
