Surveys

. The Classroom Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) survey was established measure student experiences in "research-like" courses. While these do not directly measure outcomes related to conference experience, they are useful first-pass at conference assessments. The surveys are freely available, but as of 2018 they are no longer analyzed by Prof. Lopatto and colleagues using the background population of students.

Longterm Survey. Anna gave this survey in May 2019 to all undergraduates who had ever traveled to a conference and were supported by her grants (either as part of a course or as a student researcher).
