Summer Opportunity-Summer 2021 Data Collector with UNL - Bureau of Sociological Research
• The Bureau of Sociological Research (BOSR) has a new project coming up that involves the distribution of surveys and collection of contact information at various state park areas across the State of Nebraska and is in need of data collection help from May 2021 through the beginning of August 2021.
• Data collection needs to happen on Friday/Saturday or Saturday/Sunday. This means each data collector would need to collect data during three weekends from May through August.
• We can also work to assign you to sites based on your availability and location of the park. We would do one-time payments that would include meal costs, travel expenses, data collection time, etc. There will also be training this Spring, along with COVID-19 safety procedures in place to make sure everyone stays safe while collecting these data.
