The Center for Poverty & Inequality Research hosts an annual
seminar series on poverty issues. We are pleased to welcome
faculty, researchers, and thought leaders to the UC Davis campus.
Most of our seminars are located in Andrews Conference Room, 2203
Social Sciences and Humanities Building, unless otherwise noted.
Parking Information: Daily parking is
available in the Quad Parking
Structure through the AggiePark website
or AMP app. The Andrews Conference Room is a short walk from the parking
structure.
Directions to Andrews Conference Room: Due
to ongoing building construction, access to Andrews Conference
Room is limited. Please use the back staircase, which is
currently the only entrance to the meeting room.
A map of the second floor is available
here. Follow the red arrow up the stairs to the green
hallway. The Andrews Conference Room is located at the end of the
hallway on the left. This first
floor map shows road and sidewalk closures due to
construction.
Dani Sandler will discuss Census Bureau data resources that can
be used for poverty and inequality research, including both
public use datasets and the process to request access to
confidential microdata through the Federal Statistical Research
Data Centers. The presentation will provide an overview of
available data products and walk through the steps for submitting
an FSRDC research proposal.
