Community Impact Report
Estimates of the University’s annual contribution
to the local economy top $400 million, with University
research and scholarship contributing an estimated $40
million per year or more.
Still, the true scope of the impact of University research
and sponsored programs cannot be defined in economic
terms alone. The presence of a vibrant research University
in the community provides other, less tangible benefits
that dramatically improve quality of life for us all.
Whether it’s the development of life-saving products,
the creation of significant works of art and scholarship,
or the sharing of expertise and equipment with community
partners, Binghamton University affects the economy
and culture of the region and spurs scientific and technological
progress across New York, the nation and the globe.

Doors of Discovery," to learn more about how
Binghamton University research fuels the engines of
economic development in the Southern Tier and beyond.
