To determine the overall quality of Data Management Plans (DMPs) at Wayne State University, the Library System’s Research Data Services (RDS) team evaluated the content of 119 DMPs from grant proposals submitted to the National Science Foundation by Wayne State University researchers between 2012 and 2014. The DMPs were evaluated using a 15-question modified rubric previously used by researchers at University of Michigan.

Conducted by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the National Household Travel Survey (NHTS) is the authoritative source on the travel behavior of the American public.

The NHTS has been conducted in 1983, 1990, 1995, 2001, 2009, and 2017.
