The Current Population Survey (CPS) is used to supplement census
information between census years. These data consist of a random
sample of persons from the CPS, with information on wages and
other characteristics of the workers, including sex, number of years
of education, years of work experience, occupational status, region of
residence and union membership.

datasets

Data sets and utilities from Project MOSAIC (mosaic-web.org) used to teach mathematics, statistics, computation and modeling.  Funded by the NSF, Project MOSAIC is creating a community of educators working to tie together aspects of quantitative work that students in science, technology, engineering and mathematics will need in their professional lives, but which are usually taught in isolation, if at all.
