Research

Research is the heart of the CSRC. RESEARCH THAT MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

Support for CSRC research projects comes from external gifts and grants, university programs, and direct CSRC funding. The CSRC initiates in-house research projects and community partnerships and provides grant support for faculty and graduate students from a range of departments across the campus. A number of the in-house projects have broken new ground in their respective fields: sociology, public health, education, media studies, art history, immigration rights, border issues, and women’s rights.

In addition, the CSRC hosts fellowship programs through the Institute of American Cultures and the Inter-University Program for Latino Research.

The CSRC also hosts numerous archival projects as part of our commitment to preserve the rich and diverse history of the Chicana/o and Latina/o communities for future research, classroom instruction, and the public at large.

The CSRC Press regularly publishes reports and briefs of current research supported by the CSRC.
