The Marxe School of Public and International Affairs offers a liberal arts minor in Survey Research. The minor is designed to provide undergraduate students from many disciplines with a basic introduction to survey research as a mode of inquiry, a rigorous data-gathering process, a way of understanding mass opinion and its uses in a democracy, and the foundation of the research databases that inform other social science disciplines. Students will learn about the history and uses of surveys, study sound survey design, and design and implement their own survey.
*Students cannot use the same course towards a major and minor requirement.
Please note that the Survey Research Minor is not accepting new students until further notice.
