What happened to Research I, Research II, etc.? Has the Carnegie Foundation abandoned its traditional classification framework?
The Research I & II and Doctoral I & II categories of doctorate-granting institutions last appeared in the 1994 edition. The use of Roman numerals was discontinued to avoid the inference that the categories signify quality differences. The traditional classification framework has been updated and is now identified as the Basic Classification. Many of the category definitions and labels have changed with this revision.
