Kansas City Research Data Center

该奖项将在堪萨斯城建立一个新的人口普查研究数据中心。 该中心将由堪萨斯城劳伦斯大学和密苏里州大学堪萨斯城的教师以及堪萨斯城联邦储备银行的研究人员尤因马里恩考夫曼使用 在密苏里州哥伦比亚大学的校园里有一个卫星中心。 该中心将允许这些研究人员使用政府数据记录进行经济学，社会学，管理学，人口学，健康和相关学科的前沿研究。 该中心允许研究人员访问数据，同时充分维护数据记录的隐私和机密性。 该中心将加入现有的18个位于全国各地的人口普查研究数据中心网络。 由于这些中心主要位于东西海岸，因此该中心将成为堪萨斯和密苏里州研究能力的重要补充。该研究中心将用于广泛主题的项目。 在美国的这一地区，有一个重要的研究人员社区，他们专注于创业的科学研究。 几位将立即使用新中心的研究人员将使用限制访问的人口普查微观数据来测试有关创业和小企业对美国经济影响的创新假设。

This award will establish a new Census Research Data Center in Kansas City. The center will be used by faculty from the University of Kansas City Lawrence and the University of Missouri Kansas City, as well as by researchers from the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, the Ewing Marion Kauffman with a satellite center on the campus of the University of Missouri Columbia. The center will allow these researchers to use government data records for cutting edge research in economics, sociology, management, demography, health, and related disciplines. The center allows researchers access to the data while fully maintaining the privacy and confidentiality of the data records. The center will join an existing network of 18 Census Research Data Centers located round the country. Since these other centers are primarily on the East and West coasts, the center will be an important addition to the research capacity of Kansas and Missouri.This RDC will be used for projects on a wide range of topics. There is a significant community of researchers in this part of the US who focus the scientific study of entrepreneurship. Several of the researchers who will make immediate use of the new center will use the restricted-access Census microdata to test innovative new hypotheses about the effects of entrepreneurship and small business on the US economy.
