About
Mission
The Center for the Study of Brooklyn is a hub of Brooklyn-based interdisciplinary research, experiential and community-based learning, and nonprofit internships that advances the understanding of Brooklyn's critical and cultural issues for the public good.
Vision
Faculty affiliates conduct interdisciplinary research on, about, and with Brooklyn. The Center serves as a clearinghouse of resources that support Brooklyn-based research, including guides, curated data sets, and original reports. We provide opportunities for students to conduct interdisciplinary research on Brooklyn with Brooklyn College faculty in and out of the classroom, and work with academic departments to coordinate Brooklyn-Based nonprofit and community-based internships.
