A new report shows the\u00a0University of Alabama at Birmingham<\/a>\u2019s annual economic impact in Alabama grew from $4.6 billion in 2008 and $7.15 billion in 2016 to $12.1 billion in 2022 \u2014 a 41 percent increase since 2016 and a 163 percent increase since 2008.<\/p>\n

In 2022, UAB generated more than $371 million in state and local taxes and supported or sustained 107,600 jobs in Alabama, up from 64,000 six years ago. In Birmingham alone, UAB generated $8.3 billion in economic impact, supported or sustained 73,595 jobs, and generated more than $256 million in local taxes.<\/p>\n

According to the report, \u201cUAB is the most significant single contributor to the Alabama economy and the leading generator of jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n

UAB President Ray L. Watts announced the results of the new economic impact study conducted by\u00a0Tripp Umbach<\/a>\u00a0during his presentation at the University of Alabama System Board of Trustees meeting at UAB Hill Student Center on Feb. 3.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud that our positive impact in Alabama and on Alabamians continues to grow with the active partnership and support of the University of Alabama System Office and UA System Board of Trustees,\u201d Watts said. \u201cWe exist to improve lives, and this report is evidence of our growing impact.\u201d<\/p>\n

UAB is Alabama\u2019s largest single employer and now directly employs nearly 28,000 people. One in every 20 jobs within the state of Alabama either is held directly by a UAB employee or is supported as a result of UAB\u2019s presence.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe rapid growth of UAB\u2019s economic impact has far exceeded our expectations,\u201d said UAB Senior Vice President for Finance and Administration Brian Burnett. \u201cThis report is proof that Forging the Future, UAB\u2019s strategic plan led by President Watts and supported by our talented students, faculty, staff, alumni and supporters, continues to guide our institution\u2019s purposeful growth to unprecedented results.\u201d<\/p>\n

UA System Chancellor Finis St. John says the report demonstrates a tremendous positive return on investment for public officials, business leaders and individuals looking to fund initiatives that make a difference.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe University of Alabama System campuses continue to serve our state well, and UAB\u2019s new economic impact study is further proof that dollars invested in our institutions deliver a tremendous positive return on investment for our state,\u201d St. John said. \u201cAccording to the report, UAB generates $39.35 in economic impact returned to the state for every $1 in state funding the institution receives. That return is up from $25 in 2016.\u201d<\/p>\n

UAB\u2019s academic enterprise generated $5.5 billion in statewide economic impact, while the\u00a0UAB Health System<\/a>\u00a0generated $6.4 billion. UAB\u2019s charitable giving and volunteerism were estimated to deliver $115.4 million in statewide impact, up from $80.5 million in 2016. UAB affiliate\u00a0Southern Research<\/a>\u00a0generated $221.8 million in statewide economic impact, supported and sustained 1,514 jobs, and generated $206.2 million in state and local taxes.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur economic impact continues to grow across all areas of our mission thanks to our talented students, faculty, staff, alumni and supporters,\u201d Watts said. \u201cWhile important, economic impact is only one way we contribute to our city, state and beyond. As much as we focus on that impact, we will continue to focus on the positive impact we can have on people across our education, research, patient care and community service missions.\u201d<\/p>\n
