The Survey Research Unit (SRU) provides expertise in the areas of survey and questionnaire design as well as data collection to the research community since its founding in 1990. Working under grants, contracts, and cooperative agreements, the SRU has conducted hundreds of collaborative studies at the national, state, regional, and local levels across a broad spectrum of issues.

These services may be delivered separately as part of consultation agreements or together as part of data collection efforts. Moreover, each computer file produced from our data collection efforts is thoroughly documented for subsequent use by analysts.
