CUNY is home to more than 100 research centers, institutes and consortia, which provide research opportunities for faculty and students, employment, internships, and special events. These centers focus their efforts on a wide range of areas, including aging, applied sciences, corporate integrity, transportation systems, ethnic studies, performing arts, sustainable energy and urban studies, to name a few.

Many institutions reflect CUNY’s support of state-of-the-art education and research, such as the Institute for Ultrafast Spectroscopy and Lasers. Others exemplify the University’s commitment to service and historic preservation, including the Institute for Criminal Justice Ethics at John Jay College and the Gotham Center for New York City History, founded by Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Mike Wallace.
