L a t i n o s in AMERICA!!!!

The Center for Latin American, Caribbean and Latino Studies is a research insti-

tute that works for the advancement of the study of Latin America, the Caribbean, and 

Latinos in the United States in the doctoral programs at the CUNY Graduate Center.  

One of its major priorities is to provide funding and research opportunities to Latino 

students at the Ph.D. level.    

  The Center established and helps administer an interdisciplinary specialization in 

Latin American, Caribbean and Latino Studies in the Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies 

program.  

  The Latino Data Project was developed  with the goal of making information 

available on the dynamically growing Latino population of the United States and espe-

cially New York City through the analysis of extant data available from a variety of 

sources such as the U.S. Census Bureau, the National Institute for Health, the Bureau 

of Labor Statistics, and state and local-level data sources.
