Requiring the
University of Maine System to reallocate a minimum of 3% of the annual
General Fund appropriation it receives for research and development (R&D)
from existing programs at the University of Maine and the University of
Southern Maine to support R&D efforts at its other campuses may impact
the amount of grant funds that it is able to leverage. The University of Maine System reports a
leverage rate of 4.5 to 1 for its existing programs. The total impact will depend on the actual
leverage rate achieved at the other University of Maine campuses for the
R&D funding. |
