Polytechnic Institute of New York University Mission Statement

To excel as a leading high-quality research university engaged in education, discovery and innovation  with social, intellectual and economic impact in the New York region, the nation and the world.

To achieve this mission, we educate, discover and invent. We engage students seeking educational  achievement and opportunity, faculty seeking excellence and relevance, and organizations seeking  solutions and talent. We creatively bring intellectual rigor, technological innovation and a passion  for science to the communities where we work and live and to the citizens of the world. 

We innovatively extend the benefits of science, engineering, management and liberal studies  to critical real-world opportunities and challenges, especially those linked to urban systems,  health and wellness and the global information economy.

Our learning environment develops the skills to discover and invent, stimulates innovation and encourages entrepreneurship. We refer to this environment of invention, innovation and  entrepreneurship as i2e.  It is what has produced generations of Poly Thinkers—action-oriented  learners who are capable of thinking globally and across multiple disciplines.

Every effort has been made to publish a complete and accurate catalog. However, requirements, deadlines, tuition, fees, curricula, courses and staffing are subject to change at any time without advance notice or obligation. Some course descriptions may vary from actual course content because of advancements in the discipline, emphasis of individual instructors or decisions of the faculty to change the scope or content of the course.
