BIOGRAPHY

Professor Crosnoe's main research areas are child/adolescent development, the transition to adulthood, education, families, health, and immigration. He studies how youth development, health and education are connected to each other over time and how these connections factor into socioeconomic and immigration-related inequalities in American society.
