National Science Foundation in Michigan

NSF awards tagged to Michigan

National Science Foundation as awarding agency, Michigan as place-of-performance: 1,230 records summing to $879,568,630. A National Science Foundation award coded outside MI is out. An award in Michigan from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Michigan (MI) excludes Ohio, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Illinois. An Indiana-coded NSF award is the Indiana NSF join in this slice, not this cell.

One thousand two hundred thirty awards against $879,568,630 is a mid-count NSF file: more rows than Oregon’s 521, fewer than a USDA assistance flood. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 1,230 as 1,230 unique unique grants, papers, or named universities. National Science Foundation in Michigan is the both-keys table. Michigan federal spending is the all-agency state hub. National Science Foundation is the agency book without an MI filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

This Michigan NSF join is not the Michigan SBA cell (agency 047). Keep 049 and 047 apart. Named campuses are unpublished. Correlation is not causation: Michigan did not cause $879,568,630 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 049 × MI only. Campaign contributions do not fund these USAspending awards.

1,230 rows are not 1,230 unique labs

$879,568,630 does not measure unique grants, papers, or named universities. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 049 and an MI place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 1,230 awards as a census of unique grants, papers, or named universities. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Michigan federal spending or National Science Foundation matched $879,568,630 and 1,230, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Ohio, Indiana, and Wisconsin NSF joins are other pairs, not addends.
