Investing in the Building Blocks of American Innovation
Federal R&D, Technology, and STEM Education
in the 2011 Budget
Scientific discovery and technological innovation are indispensable for promoting economic growth and jobs, protecting the environment, advancing toward a clean energy future, improving the health of the population and safeguarding our national security in the technologically-driven 21st century. The President’s 2011 Budget
proposes $147.7 billion for Federal research and development (R&D). This investment reinforces the Obama Administration’s commitment to science, technology, and innovation that will help the country make progress toward these national goals. The Budget also makes strategic Federal investments in 21st century technology, and in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education.
● The Budget encourages American innovation. The 2011 Budget proposes a substantial increase in nondefense R&D to $66.0 billion, an increase of $3.7 billion or 5.9 percent over the 2010 enacted level, to move the United States toward the President’s goal of investing 3 percent of Gross Domestic Product on public and private R&D.
● The Budget provides incentives for U.S. industry to keep investing in American innovation. The 2011 Budget proposes to make the Research and Experimentation (R&E) Tax Credit permanent.
● The Budget invests in scientific discovery to meet our challenges in the economy, health, energy, climate, and security. The Federal research portfolio (comprising basic and applied research) totals $61.6 billion, up $3.3 billion or 5.6 percent compared to the 2010 enacted level.
● The Budget sustains the President’s commitment to double the budgets of three key science agencies.
The Budget proposes $13.3 billion for the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) laboratories, an increase of $824 million or 6.6 percent above 2010.
● The Budget reflects the President’s firm commitment to American leadership in biomedical
research. The 2011 Budget proposes $32.1 billion in appropriations for the National Institutes of Health (NIH), an increase of $1.0 billion.
● The Budget proposes an expanded commitment to global change research. The 2011 Budget proposes $2.6 billion for the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP), an increase of $439 million or 21 percent over the 2010 enacted level.
● The Budget invests in the skills and education of the American people. The Budget proposes $3.7 billion for the Federal investment in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education to prepare our students for the future, including a historic $1 billion investment in K-12 STEM education.
● The Budget invests in technology to spur economic growth. The Budget reflects the President’s commitment to target strategic investments in technology to spur innovation in the public and private sectors; and does so in a manner that changes the way Washington works. It proposes over $1 billion in additional investments to accelerate job creation through R&D commercialization, deliver broadband for all Americans, instill a culture of open government, and promote open data standards in national priorities.
