About JPSM
Founded in 1993, JPSM is housed in The College of Behavioral and Social Sciences at the University of Maryland.
It is no small matter to build an organization that is a collaboration of two educational institutions, one commercial organization, and faculty in several other locations, designed to serve 13 large statistical agencies but also dozens of other agencies with statistical functions–but JPSM has achieved just that.
To date, JPSM has more than 270 graduates working in government agencies, academic settings, and private survey research firms.
Since its inception three decades ago, JPSM has increased the quality of technical staff in the Federal Statistical System and is enriching the field of survey statistics and methodology itself. Our faculty has historically been in the vanguard of research in survey methodology and strives to continue that leadership into the future.
