National Science Foundation federal obligations in Mississippi

National Science Foundation and Mississippi in one table

The intersection of National Science Foundation and Mississippi is $128,764,683. Cite USAspending.gov as the source. Cite obligations, not outlays. Cite 214 as an award-action count, not as unique campuses or principal investigators.

Research-grant, campus-lab, and stem folklore may be a legitimate research question on another extract. Here the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column, so those labels stay unlabeled folklore.

Open National Science Foundation in Mississippi for the filtered table, Mississippi federal spending for the next hub, National Science Foundation for the remaining hub, and All spending ties for other pairs.

214 actions without a directorate split

The mean of about $601,704.13 is arithmetic on $128,764,683 and 214. Calling it a typical research-grant award would invent a distribution the packet does not publish.

Unique campuses or principal investigators would live on the overlay if USAspending.gov lists them there. They are not extra dollars in this file.

Oxford is not a published geography slice

National Science Foundation is National Science Foundation without a state filter. Mississippi federal spending is Mississippi without an agency filter. This slug is the intersection. Citing the nationwide NSF book as if it were Mississippi's $128,764,683 cell is a misread of the join.

No metro split of Jackson, Oxford, and Starkville is published here. Awards coded to Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, or Louisiana are outside this cell even if mail is handled in Jackson. The overlay path already encodes both the state tag and agency 049.

Keep $128,764,683 labeled as obligations

$128,764,683 records commitments tagged to National Science Foundation and Mississippi. Payments, recoveries, and cancellations would live in other fields. This extract does not publish those fields.

214 actions can include modifications that change a prior obligation. That is why a record count is not a unique-project census. Use National Science Foundation in Mississippi for the live table. Agency 049 is the awarding-agency key stored on that overlay.

No contractor names in the packet

The join is descriptive. $128,764,683 does not prove that Mississippi received too much or too little National Science Foundation money, and it does not prove that National Science Foundation activity caused local outcomes. No performance metric is in the packet.

Campaign-finance filings do not fund this USAspending cell. National Science Foundation obligations in Mississippi and FEC receipts that mention similar words are separate public records. This page does not merge them. Unique campuses or principal investigators are unpublished here, so none are invented.

Citing NSF obligations in Mississippi

National Science Foundation in Mississippi remains the place to verify the live rows. All spending ties is an index of joins, not a hidden total that already includes $128,764,683. Place-of-performance Mississippi is statewide; it does not split Jackson, Oxford, and Starkville. Neighbor-coded activity in Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, or Louisiana stays out even if mail is handled in Jackson. Correlation is not causation. Research-grant, campus-lab, and stem folklore can be a legitimate research question on another page. Here it is labeled folklore because the packet has no NAICS, CFDA, or program column. Delta, gulf, and pine-hills folklore is the same kind of reader path: useful for search, unused as math. Agency 049 on a different state's overlay is a sibling join, not a remainder that must add to a national NSF budget on this page. Mississippi's $128,764,683 cell stands alone. Do not subtract it from National Science Foundation and call the difference 'Mississippi versus everywhere else' without a published national total in this packet — there is none. National Science Foundation is the awarding-agency label stored on the Mississippi overlay; the numeric key is 049. Readers who only remember the short name NSF still need both the state tag and the agency tag before quoting $128,764,683. The 214 figure is not a count of unique campuses or principal investigators and is not a count of distinct NSF programs. Modifications can add rows without adding new vendors. That is another reason the mean of about $601,704.13 is not a typical research-grant award. Original filings remain on USAspending.gov. This file copies overlayTarget /states/ms/agencies/049/ and canonicalPath /ties/national-science-foundation-in-mississippi/ from the packet. It does not add a fiscal year, a contractor, or an FEC dollar. If the live overlay later disagrees with $128,764,683 or 214, trust the table and treat this prose as dated to the extract. Until then, the reusable facts are $128,764,683, 214 awards, agency 049, National Science Foundation, Mississippi (MS), and the obligation unit.

USAspending.gov records $128,764,683 in obligations for awarding agency 049 (National Science Foundation) with Mississippi place of performance, covering 214 awards. That is an obligation total, not an outlay total, and not National Science Foundation's nationwide budget. The pair is a join, not a ranking.

Does this Mississippi NSF extract name campuses?

The extract lists 214 award actions totaling $128,764,683. Average obligation per award is about $601,704.13, a ratio of two packet facts, not a typical research-grant award. Unique campuses or principal investigators are not published here. Original filings remain on the source sites.

No. $128,764,683 and 214 awards are statewide Mississippi place of performance. This packet does not split Jackson, Oxford, and Starkville. Awards coded to Alabama, Tennessee, Arkansas, or Louisiana are outside this cell even if mail is handled in Jackson. The geography key remains MS.

Which page filters NSF (049) to Mississippi?

National Science Foundation in Mississippi is the overlay. Mississippi federal spending shows all agencies in the state. National Science Foundation shows agency 049 without a state filter. All spending ties lists other pairs. Original filings remain on the source sites.
