Survey design and data analysis will provide information on the skills and resources needed to design and conduct survey and techniques of analyzing survey data. The skills include identifying and developing specific survey objectives, designing survey studies, sampling respondents, developing reliable and valid self-administered questionnaires, and administering surveys.

A majority of lectures will focus on survey research, constructing surveys, response set, survey administration methods, questionnaire construction and programming surveys, sampling and power calculation, maximizing response rates, data coding and entry, reliability and validity, survey data analysis, factor analysis and item response theory.
