Coalition for Next Generation Life Science
About the Coalition
NYU is pleased to be a member of the Coalition for Next Generation Life Science, where we join other U.S. research universities and major cancer institutes in committing to collect and publish clear information about graduate school admissions, enrollment, completion, education and training opportunities, and career prospects in the life sciences.
On these pages, you can see admissions, program completion, enrollment, and time to degree information for NYU PhD programs in the life sciences, on both an interactive dashboard and in tabular form.
At NYU, our life sciences programs are all housed in the Graduate School of Arts and Science (GSAS), including those disciplines administered by the Vilcek Institute of Graduate Biomedical Sciences. Vilcek students are admitted as one cohort before choosing a specific training discipline.
These efforts are ongoing. In the future, we will publish data for both PhD and Postdoctoral programs in the life sciences, including career outcomes.
Life Sciences Research at NYU
There is an abundance of cutting-edge research happening at NYU in GSAS, the Vilcek Institute, NYU Langone School of Medicine, and the Tandon School of Engineering. We've collected just a few examples of this innovation, linked below.
GSAS
- Center for Brain Imaging
- Center for Genomics and Systems Biology
- Center for Soft Matter Research
- Courant Institute for Mathematical Sciences: Courant houses researchers in Computational Biology, Computational & Mathematical Biology, and a research group for Computational Biology, Chemistry, and Biomathematics
Tandon School of Engineering
Tandon hosts a number of ongoing life sciences research projects within Materials Research Science and Engineering (MRSEC), including:
