NYU Engineering students don’t just make innovations—they make a difference. Encouraged to think beyond the problems of today to the solutions of tomorrow, their ideas transform lives and create new industries. Join us. Acquire the knowledge and hands-on research experience you need—and dare to change the world.
InnOVatIOn WIth pUrpOse We use our power for good. Programs like Sustainable Urban Environments craft careers based on social responsibility, while virtually all majors offer opportunities to help humankind. From designing fuel-efficient vehicles in mechanical engineering to performing cancer research in chemical engineering, our students make an impact. On top of that, NYU Engineering students and faculty volunteer for good causes from Brooklyn to Haiti to Africa:
•UrbanAssemblyInstitute
•OrphansInternationalWorldwide
•ResurgeInternational
•EngineersWithoutBorders
•FIRSTRobotics
•mHealth(MobileHealth)
t Joseph Landolina and Kenny Mai recognized a need to transform the common bandage, which has remained unchanged for nearly a century. The two developed Medi-Gel, an organic, gelatinous bandage that solidifies and bonds to a laceration. This medical breakthrough is biodegradable and self-absorbent, and will help reproduce healthy skin cells around the injured area.

u “ Intense instruction that inspires you to invent with classmates who share your passion for building new things—that’s why I chose NYU Engineering.”
Billy Gordon ’12
i2e stands for invention, innovation and entrepreneurship—the core principles behind everything we do at NYU Engineering. Morethanaphilosophy,i2e is an attitude—a way of life. We’ll help you put classroom learning into action with real-world research, competitions and projects that reflect your interests and develop your creativity. You’ll transform from a thinker to a doer as you lay the groundwork for a lifetime of success.
