NYU is the largest private research university in America - and now a university with a global influence like no other. Three degree-granting portal campuses comprise NYU's global network: one in New York's Greenwich Village, a second in Abu Dhabi, and a third opening in Shanghai in September 2013.

Since its inception, NYU has been a distinctly urban university, one that NYU founder, Albert Gallatin, called a university that is "in and of the city." Under current NYU president, John Sexton, the University has evolved into a university that is "in and of the great cities of the world."

NYU enrolls more than 40,000 students across its global...

... network where students study not only on our campuses in New York, Abu Dhabi, and Shanghai, but at our global academic centers in Accra, Berlin, Buenos Aires, Florence, Madrid, London, Paris, Prague, Tel Aviv, and soon - Sydney and Washington, DC.

More than 4,000 courses are offered in hundreds of degree and non-degree programs.
