I took a few classes at College Park in this program while attending UB. If you're interested in survey work, I highly recommend taking some courses using inter-institutional transfer--it's easy and will augment your knowledge of survey implementation.

Dr.  Bates,

 

My name is Jill Esau and I am the assistant director of the University of

Michigan's Program in Survey Methodology.   The Program in Survey

Methodology has a partnership with The Joint Program in Survey Methodology (JPSM),

located at the University of Maryland, College Park.  

 

JPSM is the nation's oldest and largest program offering graduate training

in the principles and practices of survey research.  Founded in 1993, it is sponsored

by the Federal Interagency Consortium on Statistical Policy and located at the

University of Maryland.  To date, it has more than 160 graduates working in government

agencies, academic settings, and private survey research firms.  Its award-winning

faculty is drawn from the University of Maryland, the University of Michigan, Westat,

and other organizations.

 

The director of the Michigan Program in Survey Methodology and the

University of Maryland’s Joint Program in Survey Methodology will be attending

the Bowie State University Graduate/Professional School Information Day 2009

on Wednesday, October 14, from 9:30am-1:00pm.  The event will be held in the

Martin Luther King building commons area. 

 

Both the University of Michigan Program in Survey Methodology and

the Joint Program in Survey Methodology offer programs of study at the doctoral and

master's levels. The PhD and MS programs prepare students for careers in private and

academic survey research firms, government agencies, and corporations. The certificate

program is designed to provide students with specialized knowledge in

survey methodology to enhance skills in current positions and to expand

career opportunities.

 

We would appreciate your sharing this information with any students or

colleagues that you feel may be interested in learning more about our

Program.

 

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.

 

Jill
