NewYork UniversityGALLATIN SCHOOL OF INDIVIDUALIZED STUDYThe founding of NewYork University in 1831 by a group of eminent private citizens was ahistoric event in American education. In the early 19th century, a major emphasis in highereducation was on the mastery of Greek and Latin, with little attention given to modern orcontemporary subjects.The founders of NewYork University intended to enlarge the scopeof higher education to meet the needs of persons aspiring to careers in business, industry, science,and the arts, as well as in law, medicine, and the ministry.The opening of the Universityof London in 1828 convinced NewYorkers that NewYork, too, should have a university.The first president of NewYork University’s governing council was Albert Gallatin, formeradviser toThomas Jefferson and secretary of the treasury in Jefferson’s cabinet. Gallatin and hiscofounders said that the new university was to be a “national university” that would providea “rational and practical education for all.”The result of the founders’ foresight is today a university that is recognized both nationallyand internationally as a leader in scholarship. Of the more than 3,000 colleges and universitiesin America, only 60 institutions are members of the distinguished Association of AmericanUniversities. NewYork University is one of the 60. Students come to the University from all50 states and from over 130 foreign countries.The University includes 18 schools, colleges, institutes, and programs at major centers inManhattan, Brooklyn, and Abu Dhabi (UAE). In 2013, NYU in New York and NYU AbuDhabi will be joined by a third campus in Shanghai, China. In addition, the University operatesa branch campus program in Rockland County at St.Thomas Aquinas College. Certainof the University’s research facilities, notably the Nelson Institute of Environmental Medicine,are located in Sterling Forest, near Tuxedo, NewYork.Although overall the Universityis large, the divisions are small- to moderate-sized units—each with its own traditions, programs,and faculty.Enrollment in the undergraduate divisions of the University ranges between 130 and7,672. While some introductory classes in some programs have large numbers of students,many classes are small. Nearly 4,600 undergraduate courses are offered.The University overall grants more than 25 degrees.NewYork University Bulletin 2012-2013 7
