Access. Opportunity. NYU. At NYU, your academic and professional growth are not only integrated into New York City, they are enhanced by it. Depending on which degree you pursue, you may have class at our Washington Square campus in Greenwich Village, our health corridor on Manhattan’s east side, Downtown Brooklyn, or at all three. Technology management studies may see you at the Stern School of Business in Greenwich Village one day and the Tandon School of Engineering in Brooklyn the next, while an urban sciences focus could take you from our health corridor, to Brooklyn, and back to Washington Square. You may also have the chance to study at one of NYU’s 13 global locations, including degree-granting campuses in Abu Dhabi and Shanghai and academic centers in dynamic cities like Paris, London, Buenos Aires, and Accra. No matter your academic path or location, NYU’s resources are at your fingertips—providing distinctive opportunities and support from the moment you step on campus until you earn your degree, and far beyond.

I connected with the Wasserman Center early in my first term. I had just moved to New York City and was looking for a job and an internship, and they provided a strong professional perspective. Each workshop I attended was led by a different expert speaker, which showed me how deep and specialized the Center’s staff is.
