HOTTEST TECH HUB As an anchor of New York’s “Tech Triangle” in downtown Brooklyn, the School stands at the cutting edge of innovation, research, and education, making it the ideal location for graduate studies in engineering, science, and technology.


WORLD-CHANGING INNOVATION

ENGINEERED IN BROOKLYN

Graduate students in one of the NYU Tandon School of Engineering’s Future Labs working for Sollega, which manufactures solar panel arrays that promote green energy by reducing the associated mounting and installation costs.

In Brooklyn, people do things a little differently. They embrace the unconventional, fight for what they believe, and don’t back down. That’s the energy our students and faculty put into engineering, science, and technology management. They make discoveries, innovate solutions, and drive companies that change industries. Our alumni include Nobel Prize winners, astronauts, university presidents, and the leaders and founders of more than 2,000 corporations, including the first female African American CEO of a Fortune 500 company.


GAME-CHANGING

INDUSTRY The Brooklyn Tech Triangle is home to more than 1,350 creative and technology firms, representing roughly 20,000 jobs, and is growing rapidly each year. This extraordinary expansion is complemented by the dozens of large, established tech companies such as Google, Facebook, IBM, Twitter, and LinkedIn that have opened offices in Greater New York City in recent years and enabled NYC to surpass tech centers like Boston in attracting venture capital.
