New York University

New York University (NYU) is a private research university in New York City, United States. It was chartered in 1831 by the New York State Legislature and founded in 1832 by Albert Gallatin as a non-sectarian all-male institution near City Hall, and in 1833 it moved to the main campus in Greenwich Village that surrounds Washington Square Park. It has since added an engineering school in Brooklyn's MetroTech Center and graduate schools throughout Manhattan. Its internal academic centers include the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences, the Center for Data Science and the Center for Neural Science. NYU is a global university system with degree-granting portal campuses at NYU Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates and NYU Shanghai in China, and its past and present faculty and alumni include eight Turing Award winners.
