Welcome to New York City College of Technology, of the City University of New York.

Welcome to City Tech.

At the college's founding in 1946, its mission was to provide New York with the skilled workforce it needed to thrive in the post-war economy. Today, City Tech's degree programs continue to prepare students for the high-tech workforce needs of tomorrow. City Tech is the designated college of technology for the City University of New York, CUNY, and one of the most diverse colleges of technology in the United States, roles we are proud to fill.

Where can Tech take you? To find out, I invite you to join me on a brief tour of our campus at the foot of the Brooklyn Bridge.

City Tech's new 360,000 square-foot academic complex is home to our programs in clinical health care and the sciences, in addition to a beautiful theater, fitness center, and gym, upon completion. This new building represents a significant investment by the state of New York. But a building is only as good as what happens within it.

Our state-of-the practice labs and smart classrooms serve programs including restorative dentistry, dental hygiene, radiologic technology and medical imaging, nursing, health services administration, Human Services, biology and chemistry.

Students in our healthcare programs graduate to careers of enormous importance to society. Our program in biomedical informatics enables a new generation of scientists and healthcare workers to meet the challenges of today and of the future.

City Tech is the epicenter of STEM education in CUNY, so it was natural for the college to participate in a new partnership with Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory. The DNA Learning Center NYC at City Tech provides opportunities for our students to pursue cutting-edge research projects and internships, and also serves the greater community, by enabling New York City school students to explore DNA science and its impact on human health and society.

Inside the Namm Complex, you'll find our Hospitality Management program, whose students receive first-rate practical training in our kitchens and in their expanded learning laboratory of New York City. You'll find Computer Systems Technology majors preparing for careers in programming, software development, networking and security. For a story told in color and moving pixels, venture over to the Communication Design Department, and see students engaged in preparation for careers as art directors, illustrators, and graphic, motion, and web designers.

Travel down Jay Street to discover Voorhees Hall, home to our groundbreaking Architectural Technology Department, helping to reimagine our built environment. In the same building, find individuals training to supervise those projects and maintain our city's infrastructure, in our Construction Management and Civil Engineering Department. Go backstage with our Entertainment Technology Department to see students learning the art of scenery, lighting, sound, video and show control technology, or students preparing to manage new forms of interactive media critical to our information age economy, in our program in Emerging Media Technology. Consult our faculty in the department of Computer Engineering Technology for expertise on Robots, Cyber-Security, and Artificial Intelligence.

En route to an Associate or Bachelor's degree, our students benefit from coursework in the liberal arts, which rounds out their education and strengthens core skills. In addition, students have the opportunity to pursue an academic minor in a range of liberal arts and humanities areas of study, enabling them to explore other areas of interest and expand opportunities after graduation.

Where can Tech take you? Whether you are beginning your college degree, continuing your education, or re-envisioning your career, our unique degree programs offer not only a college degree, but also a professional path and identity.

See for yourself how City Tech can help you build the future you are imagining.
