The Program Survey, formerly the “Annual Report,” is PAEA’s longest-running research endeavor. This annual survey collects information about program operations, program and student financial information, student and faculty characteristics, and much more. Program Survey completion is mandatory for all PAEA member programs.
Latest Report
PAEA has published the results of the Program Survey since 1984; reports are typically released in the fall of the year after data collection closes. The latest report, By the Numbers: Program Report 35, is based on responses to the 2019 Program Survey. You can view the survey instrument from previous years here.
