Description
The 2000 Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study (B&B:2000) is a study that is part of the Baccalaureate and Beyond Longitudinal Study (B&B) program. B&B:2000 (http://nces.ed.gov/surveys/B&B/) is a longitudinal survey that examines students� education and work experiences as they complete a bachelor�s degree, with a special emphasis on the experiences of new elementary and secondary teachers. The study was conducted using multiple sources, including institutional records, government databases, and student interviews. B&B:2000 was the first to employ a web-based instrument for collection of institutional records. Postsecondary students and institutions which participated in B&B:2000 were sampled from the 2000 National Postsecondary Student Aid Study (NPSAS:2000). Key statistics produced from B&B:2000 include bachelor�s degree recipients� workforce participation, income and debt repayment, entry into and persistence through graduate school programs, undergraduate experience, demographic backgrounds, expectations regarding graduate study and work, and participation in community service.
