Who We Are and Our Mission
In March, 2008, the leaders of over forty academic survey research organizations agreed to join together to form a new association of organizations, the Association of Academic Survey Research Organizations [AASRO]. Their vision was that AASRO would grow to be recognized as a leading voice in support and promotion of excellence in survey research conducted in academic settings.
In May, 2008 AASRO became a formal organization with the mission of facilitating mutual support among member organizations in the following ways:
- Promoting excellence and integrity in the conduct of survey research;
- Sharing information for effective organization and administration of academic survey research organizations;
- Promoting the value of survey research conducted in academic settings; and,
- Advancing the role of survey research organizations across diverse university structures.
