University of WyomingWYSAC traces its origins to 1972, when the Government Research Bureau conducted the first in what then became a biennial series of statewide election surveys. The Survey Research Center (SRC) was formally established in 1989 to continue the biennial Wyoming Election Survey and to take on other projects for state and local agencies throughout Wyoming. The SRC joined with the Statistical Analysis Center to form the Wyoming Survey & Analysis Center in 2004. Researchers collect, manage, analyze, and report data to inform planning and funding decisions.
