Luiz Carlos Zalaf Caseiro

PhD in Sociology at the University of São Paulo. Master in sociology and bachelor in social sciences at the same institution. I have experience with research in social inequalities, social stratification, higher education, labor market, and socioeconomic development, with emphasis in quantitative methodology and data analysis. I worked for four years as a researcher at the Observatory for Innovation and Competitiveness, at the University of São Paulo (2008-2012), was a visiting researcher at the Brazil Institute at King's College London (2012), and, since May 2013, I have been a researcher at the Brazilian National Institute for Educational Research (INEP), where I work with research and with the monitoring and evaluation of Brazilian higher education policies. At INEP, in partnership with IPEA, I conducted a research project on the trajectories of higher education graduates in the labor market. I have taken several courses in multivariate data analysis and have advanced skills on statistical software including R, SAS, Stata, and SPSS. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)
