Closely affiliated with the Graduate School’s Ph.D. Program in Educational Psychology, the Center for Advanced Study in Education is comprised of researchers from the faculty of CUNY colleges and students and faculty from Graduate Center.  Directed by Dr. Bert Flugman, CASE

conducts basic and applied research concerned with improving and upgrading the quality of education in urban areas.  CASE serves as a forum for consideration of policy issues, as a center for interdisciplinary approaches to educational problems, and as a clearinghouse in areas of educational research.

“Funding for CASE projects originates with private industry, foundations, and city, state and federal agencies.  While some of CASE’s work is national in scope, much of it is focused on New York City and New York State.”
