The Graduate Center, CUNY
The Graduate Center was founded in 1961 as the doctorate-granting institution of The City University of New York, the nation's largest urban university system. Here, 3,500 students and 1,600 faculty scholars, drawn from throughout the CUNY system and New York City's leading cultural and scientific institutions, join in the shared enterprises of teaching, learning, researching, and expanding the boundaries of knowledge. In this environment of intellectual discovery and exchange, 31 doctoral programs in the humanities, social sciences, and sciences are augmented by 28 research centers and institutes focused on areas of compelling social, civic, cultural, and scientific concerns. The National Research Council's most recent assessment placed more than a third of the school's rated doctoral programs among the nation's top 20. The Graduate Center also administers the CUNY Baccalaureate Program, and offers a wide range of continuing education and cultural programs of interest to the general public.
