The Polytechnic Institute of New York University, often referred to as NYU Polytechnic, NYU-Poly, or Poly is one of the 18 schools and colleges that comprise New York University (NYU).

It is the second oldest private engineering and technology institute in the United States. Its Carnegie Classification is Doctorate-Granting "Research University" (very high research activity). The financial engineering program was the second program of its kind and the first curriculum to be certified by the International Association of Financial Engineers. NYU-Poly was one of the first universities to introduce a cyber security program, and is designated as both a Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education and a Center of Academic Excellence in Research by the National Security Agency. Polytechnic is the first school in New York City to receive the designation Center of Excellence in Information Assurance Education by the U.S. National Security Agency. The first polymer science and polymer engineering programs in the U.S. began at NYU-Poly. In 1950, the NYU-Poly division of the American Chemical Society was formed, and has since grown to the second-largest division in this association with nearly 8,000 members. Polytechnic people include Ernst Weber (first president of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and one of the founders of the U.S. National Academy of Engineering (NAE)), Herman Francis Mark (Father of Modern Polymer Science), Buddy Ratner (one of the founding fathers of modern bioengineering), Elmer L. Gaden (father of Biomedical Engineering) , Samuel L. Greitzer (founding chairman of the United States of America Mathematical Olympiad) and George Bugliarello (founding fellow of the American Institute for Medical and Biological Engineering).

Founded in 1854, the Institute adopted the European polytechnic university model which tend to be primarily devoted to the instruction of technical arts and applied sciences. Its laboratory instruction at the undergraduate and graduate levels led to close cooperation with industry. Its main campus is centrally located in the MetroTech Center, the nation's largest urban university-industry science and technology park. NYU-Poly is MetroTech's founding member. NYU-Poly operates several on-campus and off-campus business incubators and is known for its success in the transfer of technology from the laboratory to the marketplace. NYU-Poly is one of the eight schools of NYU that is part of the NYU Entrepreneurs Network (NYUEN).

History

NYU-Poly was formerly Polytechnic University and it is currently an interim entity that maintains a formal affiliation with NYU, allowing NYU to complete the transition for Poly to become the School of Engineering and Technology within NYU (see NYU Affiliation below).

Timeline

The official timeline for the Institute is maintained on Poly at a Glance: the Poly Timeline.

• A group of Brooklyn businessmen drew up a charter on May 17, 1853, to establish a school for young men.
• In 1854, the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute was chartered and moved into its first home at 99 Livingston Street.
• In 1855, the school opened its doors September 10 to 265 young men, ages nine to 17. From 1889 to 1973 it was known as "Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn" (but often referred to as "PIB" or "Brooklyn Poly").
• Baccalaureate degrees were conferred for the first time in 1871.
• Postgraduate programs began in 1901.
• In 1917, the preparatory program was separated from Institute and renamed the Polytechnic Preparatory Country Day School, or Poly Prep for short. It is located in the Dyker Heights section of Brooklyn.

  

• First doctoral degree awarded in 1921.
• Polymer Research Institute established in 1942.
• Microwave Research Institute established in 1945.
• In 1957, Poly moved to its present location (333 Jay Street, the former site of the American Safety Razor factory), and became a co-educational institution.
• In 1973, Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn acquired the faculty and programs of New York University’s School of Engineering and Science to form Polytechnic Institute of New York after NYU was forced to sell the University Heights campus (where the engineering school was situated) because of financial hardships.
• Center for Advanced Technology in Telecommunications (CATT) established in 1983.
• In 1985, the school gained university status and its name was changed to Polytechnic University.
• The millennium closed with a successful $275 million fund raising campaign.
• In 2008, Polytechnic changed its name to Polytechnic Institute of New York University when it became affiliated with NYU, in order to align itself to become the School of Engineering and Technology within NYU.

Name

Polytechnic Institute of NYU has carried a number of different names.

• 1854: Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute (founding name)
• 1889: Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn (separated from preparatory program)
• 1973: Polytechnic Institute of New York (merged with New York University School of Engineering and Science)
• 1985: Polytechnic University (acquired university status)
• 2008: Polytechnic Institute of New York University (officially affiliated with New York University)

New York University affiliation

In 1973, New York University’s School of Engineering and Science was merged into the Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn to form the Polytechnic Institute of New York. The 2008 affiliation between Poly and NYU re-established a formal relationship between New York University and the former Polytechnic Institute of New York after nearly 35 years of separation. The Institute is now an interim entity while it aligns itself to become NYU's dedicated resource for applied sciences and engineering.

On August 7, 2007, Polytechnic and New York University (NYU) announced that the two institutions were engaged in merger discussions. In October 2007, NYU’s and Polytechnic's Boards of Trustees both approved continuation of talks on a merger of NYU and Polytechnic. Both institutions decided to continue drafting a Definitive Agreement to more fully define the relationship between the universities.

On March 6, 2008, Polytechnic’s Board of Trustees voted to approve the "Definitive Agreement" to affiliate with New York University, with the goal that Polytechnic would become NYU's engineering, applied science, and technology school. On June 24, 2008, the New York State Regents approved an affiliation between Polytechnic and NYU by a change of charter which made NYU the sole member of the Polytechnic, effective July 1, 2008.

Consolidation into New York University

Polytechnic Institute of NYU is on the path to being consolidated into NYU as its School of Engineering and Technology by 2014, similar to that of NYU College of Arts and Sciences, Stern School of Business, Tisch School of the Arts, Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development, Gallatin School of Individualized Study, and other NYU schools.

Campuses

NYU-Poly has its main campus in Downtown Brooklyn and is close to transportation routes and easily accessible from all parts of New York City and Long Island. In addition to its main address at MetroTech Center in Downtown Brooklyn, the institute offers programs at other sites throughout the region, including Long Island, Westchester, and Manhattan, as well as several programs in Israel, China and the Middle East. NYU-Poly is an integral part of NYU Abu Dhabi, NYU Shanghai and the NYU Center for Urban Science and Progress (CUSP) in downtown Brooklyn.

Existing campuses

Brooklyn Campus

The Institute played a leadership role in bringing about MetroTech Center, one of the largest urban university-corporate parks in the world and the largest in the United States, while closing down the larger campus at its former Long Island Graduate Center. Today, the 16-acre (65,000 m²), $1 billion complex in Brooklyn includes the Institute's main campus, along with several technology-dependent companies such as Securities Industry Automation Corporation (SIAC), as well as New York City Police Department's 911 Center, New York City Fire Department Headquarters and the U.S. technology and operations functions of JPMorgan Chase. In 1998, a Marriott Hotel was built adjacent to MetroTech. MetroTech is often regarded as a "case study" in effective university, corporate, government and private-developer cooperation, because it has resulted in renewing an area once characterized urban decay.

Wunsch Building houses the school's undergraduate admissions offices and also hosts social, cultural, and academic events for the school and community. The building dates back to 1847 and was the first independent black church in Brooklyn. It was also a stop on the Underground Railroad and has been designated a historic landmark since November 24, 1981.

The Bern Dibner Library of Science and Technology, opened in 1990 in a new building, is Polytechnic's information hub, with many of its offerings accessible online.

The Othmer Residence Hall is a 18-story building housing over 400 students and was opened in 2002, and currently houses freshmen and sophomores. It is named for chemical engineering professor Donald Othmer and his wife, Mildred Othmer.

The Center for Urban Science and Progress (CUSP) is a 460,000-square-foot research facility.

The Clark Residence, opened in September 2010, offers housing to juniors, seniors, and graduate students.

NYU-Poly will build a massive tower on Jacobs Administration and Civil Engineering building site. The developer will be selected in Spring 2013.

Long Island Campus

In 1961, Poly opened the Long Island Graduate Center, which grew to several buildings and a dormitory, located on 25 acres of land adjacent to Republic Airport, in Farmingdale. In 2002, the Long Island Graduate Center was closed, and remaining classes were moved to a small portion of a nearby office building in the Melville Corporate Center. The Long Island Graduate Center is only steps away from some big tech companies. It now shares the same building as Agilent Technologies, a maker of electronic test equipment, and is adjacent to the Huntington Quadrangle, which houses InterDigital, a wireless systems designer for cellular networks. The original buildings were later demolished, and replaced by a shopping center.

Graduate programs at the Long Island campus have been expanded to include Electrophysics, Systems Engineering, Telecommunication Networks and Wireless Innovation.

Westchester Campus

Established in the 1980s, in the Hudson Valley, NYU-Poly's Westchester campus offers several graduate programs and operates similarly to the Long Island Campus.

Manhattan site

Located at 2 Broadway in downtown Manhattan, this site offers degree programs in Financial Engineering, Management of Technology, Information Management and Accelerated Management of Technology, and the Exec 21 Construction Management certificate. The Manhattan Graduate Center offers a facility for working professionals.

Israel Campus

Located in Rishon LeZion in the College of Management. This campus offers Master of Science in Management and Master of Science in Organizational Behaviour degrees.

New York University Abu Dhabi

In October 2007, New York University announced its intention to open a complete branch campus in Abu Dhabi, financed by the Abu Dhabi government. The Abu Dhabi campus was planned by New York University, and the funding mainly came from the Government of the United Arab Emirates. It was first opened in 2008 on a temporary site in downtown Abu Dhabi, and held various public events such as academic conferences, workshops, and performances. It accepted its first class of 150 students in September 2010. As of 2010 the college offered liberal arts and science subjects, including engineering. New York University plans to move the Abu Dhabi campus to a new site by 2014, and plans to increase the number of students at the campus to two thousand. The university plans to open a graduate school and to make the school a center for research. The new campus will be in the Marina district of Saadiyat Island, and is designed by Rafael Viñoly, an Uruguayan architect.

NYU-Poly is integrally connected to NYU Abu Dhabi like other schools of NYU and is responsible for NYU Abu Dhabi's engineering programs.

Alfred Bloom, former president of Swarthmore College, was appointed to lead NYU Abu Dhabi as vice chancellor in September 2008.

New York University Shanghai

NYU Shanghai (NYU-SH) is the latest of NYU's new base campuses, and will have its first class in 2013. The NYU Shanghai curriculum will include a variety of majors in the Life and Behavioral Sciences (such as Neural Science), the Physical Sciences (such as Chemistry and Physics), Social Sciences (including Business and Finance), Mathematical and Engineering Sciences (including Computer Science and Electrical Engineering), and the Humanities. NYU-Poly will be integrally connected like other schools of NYU and will be responsible for NYU Shanghai's engineering programs. As members of NYU's global network, students at NYU Shanghai will be expected to spend at least one semester and up to three semesters pursuing their studies at the other NYU global academic centers. In this way students will have the opportunity to pursue major-specific courses in New York or Abu Dhabi with professors from those campuses. In addition, the study-away sites will offer special opportunities for a semester abroad.
