Troy received their third grant from the NIST. The first two grants were to develop a research lab on campus, and this third one is to fund the actual research Troy will be doing. Troy will also be offering post-doctoral positions.

For those who may know, does this mean that Troy will be considered a lower-tier "research institution" soon? I'm not sure how that works.
It sounds like from the article that Troy is building towards being a research institution. Right now, the Carnegie Classification has Troy listed as M1: Large Master's Program. For Troy to make the jump into the Research University category, they must award at least 20 research/scholarship doctoral degrees and have at least $5 million in total research expenditures in an annual period.

From the Carnegie Classifications Website:
R1 (very high research): UT-Arlington, Georgia State
R2 (high research): Georgia Southern, South Alabama, UL Lafayette, Texas State, Arkansas State, UA-Little Rock
R3 (Doctoral awarding): UL Monroe
M1 (Master's Program, Large): Appalachian State, Troy, Coastal Carolina

Here's the Methodology
Interesting. That's exciting from an academic perspective.
Thank you for that info.
This is a nice get for Troy. Congrats!
Congrats to Troy! Just don't tell anyone from FAU. 03-shhhh Those guys have no love for our Trojan brethren. 01-lauramac2

Yeah. Some of those fans are really, really strange. If it was UAB or USA wanting to act that way, it would make more sense. But FAU?

Actually, I think it’s just one odd owl acting strange

It may happen. Troy seems to be trying to expand their academic profile.
