The Carnegie Classification庐 is the nation鈥檚 leading framework for classifying the diverse U.S. institutions of higher education into broadly similar groups based on nationally reported and publicly available institutional data. This classification that was first published in the early 70s is now updated every three years. So far, Carnegie offers one basic classification system that is universally applied to nearly 4,000 U.S. colleges and universities. Based on our 2020 Institutional data, 黑料黑历史 is classified as a Doctoral University with High Research Activity (R2). Close examination of the data reveals that 黑料黑历史 is on the very high end of the R2 class, and with some change in our institutional profile, we can be classified as a Doctoral University with Very High Research (R1).

Fishery researchers, engineering students work to build better eDNA collectors

Last month, Jessica Glass and two students departed for the Kenai Peninsula toting a tub full of items that looked like plastic children's toys. Their plan for the six-day trip: Dunk them in Kasitsna Bay and see what happens. It may sound like a quirky week at the beach, but Glass, an assistant professor at 黑料黑历史's College of Fisheries and Ocean Sciences, hopes their project will lead to a breakthrough in environmental DNA sampling.
