CUNY Dominican Studies Institute at The City College of New York

Founded in 1992, the CUNY Dominican Studies Institute at The City College of New York is the only university-based think tank in the United States devoted exclusively to academic research on the history, socio-economic/political status, and culture of the Dominican people in the United States and abroad. The Institute comprises three major components: the Research and Administration unit, the Dominican Library, and the Dominican Archives. In addition, the Institute works to advance research and teaching in the area of Dominican Studies, and has established a CUNY Baccalaureate in this field administered by the CUNY Graduate Center, the only such degree program in the United States. The Institute is headed by renowned sociologist Ramona Hernández, Ph.D., a specialist in Dominican immigration and the status of Dominican workers in the U.S. economy. Hernández authored the seminal text The Mobility of Workers under Advanced Capitalism: Dominican Migration to the United States (2002), and co-authored Dominican Americans (1998), among a number of other books and articles.
