- Description
- The United States Department of Education has a requirement for a large, complex data collection. The National Study of Faculty and Students [NSoFaS] is designed to collect information on nationally representative samples of faculty, instructional staff and students. The study consists of two main components. The faculty and instructional staff component [Part A-NSoPF:2004] will be similar in scope to prior National Study of Postsecondary Faculty (NSOPF) data collections. The student survey component [Part B-NPSaS:2004], will be similar to prior National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS) data collections, plus include state-representative samples of students enrolled at public 2-year, public 4-year, and private not-for-profit 4-year in 12 states. Data will be collected primarily via the web and include self-administered, telephone interview and web field work. Although different modes of collection are anticipated, the system will be web-based. This study will result in documented data files, electronic codebooks, data analysis systems, and tabulations/descriptive reports for each main component. The faculty and instructional staff component [Part A or NSoPF] will consist of a field test in 2002-03 and a full-scale sample in 2003-04. Data will be collected from a nationally representative sample of faculty and instructional staff in 2- and 4-year (and above) public and private, not-for-profit colleges and universities that are Title IV eligible, degree-granting institutions in the 50 states and the District of Columbia. If additional funding becomes available, faculty and institutions in the private for-profit 4-year sector will be added to Part A. The student component [Part B or NPSaS] will consist of a field test in 2002-03 and a full-scale sample in 2003-04. NPSaS is a comprehensive nationwide study of how students and their families pay for postsecondary education. It includes nationally representative samples of undergraduates, graduates, and first-professional students; students attending less-than-2-year institutions, community colleges, 4-year colleges, and major universities. For 2004, the sample will also include state-representative undergraduate student samples enrolled in public 2-year, public 4-year, and private not-for-profit 4-year institutions in California, Connecticut, Delaware, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Nebraska, New York, Oregon,Tennessee, and Texas. Students who receive financial aid and those who do not receive aid participate in NPSaS. Results of the study are used to help determine federal policy regarding student financial aid.
