New York University Tandon School of Engineering

The New York University Tandon School of Engineering (commonly referred to as Tandon) is the engineering and applied sciences school of New York University. Tandon is the second oldest private engineering and technology school in the United States.[2][3][4][5] The school dates back to 1854 when its predecessor institutions, the University of the City of New York[6] School of Civil Engineering and Architecture and the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute, were founded.[7] The school was renamed in 2015 in honor of NYU Trustees Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon following their donation of $100 million to the school.[8]

The school's main campus is in Brooklyn's MetroTech Center, an urban academic-industrial research park. It is one of several engineering schools that were founded based on a European polytechnic university model in the 1800s, in response to the increasing industrialization of the United States. It has been a key center of research in the development of microwave, wireless, radar, electronics in general, polymers, industrial engineering, operations research and the US space program.[9]

History

 
Polytechnic Institute at 99 Livingston

Founding institutions

Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute

On May 17, 1853, a group of Brooklyn businessmen wrote a charter to establish a school for young men. Founded as the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute, the school moved into its first home at 99 Livingston Street in Brooklyn. The first class, admitted in 1855, consisted of 265 young men aged nine to 17. The school conferred its first bachelor's degrees in 1871. Graduate programs began in 1901, and the school awarded its first doctoral degree in 1921.[10] From 1889 to 1973 the school became known as Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn. In 1917, the preparatory program separated from the Institute and became the Polytechnic Preparatory Country Day School. Polytechnic Institute moved to its present location in 1957, the former site of the American Safety Razor Company factory, where it became a co-educational institution.

School of Civil Engineering and Architecture

In 1854, the University of the City of New York, now New York University, founded the School of Civil Engineering and Architecture at a time when specialized schools of engineering were uncommon in America.[11] Classes began in 1855 and the school awarded its first undergraduate degree in 1857. As the industrial revolution took shape, the school formalized its engineering curriculum and the school's first dean, Charles H. Snow, changed the name of the school to the School of Applied Science. During this time the engineering school officially separated from the university's arts and science school then called University College. In 1894 the University of the City of New York moved its engineering school to a new campus in the Bronx.[12] The new campus gave the university space to build larger science laboratories that could not be constructed at its Washington Square site.[13] With the addition of the new campus, under the leadership of Chancellor Henry Mitchell MacCracken, the University of the City of New York renamed itself New York University. The neighborhood surrounding the Bronx campus eventually became known as University Heights. By 1920 separate electrical and chemical engineering departments were created and the school changed its name to the College of Engineering.

Expansion, financial difficulties and acquisition

Enrollment at New York University expanded considerably from the early 1900s into the postwar decades. However, by the early 1970s this growth ceased due to rising crime and financial troubles in New York City. New York University faced financial hardships leading it to sell its University Heights campus that housed its engineering school to City University of New York, which in turn renamed the campus Bronx Community College. Also during that period from 1969 to 1975, Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn was forced to rely on subsidies provided by New York state to keep the school afloat. The state supported Polytechnic on the basis that closing the school would create economic hardship locally.[9] With both Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn and New York University facing financial difficulties, the state brokered a merger with New York University's engineering school. Polytechnic Institute acquired the faculty, programs and students of New York University's engineering school to form Polytechnic Institute of New York.[9] Polytechnic Institute of New York gained university status in 1985 and changed its name to Polytechnic University.

Distinction through technology

By 1986 Polytechnic University in Brooklyn was the largest technological university in the New York metropolitan area and the second-largest in graduate enrollment in the nation after the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Of the 300 engineering schools in the United States, Polytechnic had the second-largest graduate enrollment and was among the most successful institutions in the country as a producer of science and engineering graduates who went on to doctoral studies. An average of 7.2 percent of Polytechnic graduates went on to achieve a Ph.D., compared with two other schools with large engineering programs: Carnegie Mellon, with an average of 6 percent, and Princeton, with 4.5 percent.[9] Polytechnic University became well known for its research centers in electrophysics and polymer blends.

Enrollment History:
1986: 5,100 students[9]
2015: 5,212 students[14]

Discussions about a merger with Polytechnic University and New York University began in 2004. Four years later Polytechnic University and New York University agreed to take steps toward a merger beginning with a formal affiliation between the two schools. This affiliation resulted in the school changing its name to Polytechnic Institute of New York University.[15] The schools officially merged in 2014 when the New York State Regents approved the change of charter making NYU the sole member of Polytechnic University.[16][17] Since the merger, applications to the school and incoming SAT scores have increased substantially. The school has also experienced an influx of students coming from outside of New York state. Fundraising and faculty research awards have increased since the merger.[15] The school also opened a bioengineering facility in partnership with the medical and dental schools.[18]

A gift of $100 million from Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon in 2015 resulted in the school changing its name to the Tandon School of Engineering. New York University has committed to investing over $500 million to its engineering school in the coming years.[19]

In 2022, NYU announced it will invest $1 billion in the school to hire 40 tenure-track faculty members, improve lab and student spaces, and bolster the cybersecurity and artificial intelligence programs.[20][21]

Fundraising

The school has had several fundraising campaigns over the years. From 2001 to 2005 the school raised more than $275 million.[22] Alumnus Joseph J. Jacobs, who founded Jacobs Engineering Group, one of the largest engineering and construction companies in the world, gave the school more than $30 million over the course of his life.[23]

businessmen wrote a charter to establish a school for young men Founded as the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute the school moved into its first home at 99 Livingston Street in Brooklyn The first class admitted in 1855 consisted of 265 young men aged nine to 17 The school conferred its first bachelor s degrees in 1871 Graduate programs began in 1901 and the school awarded its first doctoral degree in 1921 10 From 1889 to 1973 the school became known as Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn In 1917 the preparatory program separated from the Institute and became the Polytechnic Preparatory Country Day School Polytechnic Institute moved to its present location in 1957 the former site of the American Safety Razor Company factory where it became a co educational institution School of Civil Engineering and Architecture In 1854 the University of the City of New York now New York University founded the School of Civil Engineering and Architecture at a time when specialized schools of engineering were uncommon in America 11 Classes began in 1855 and the school awarded its first undergraduate degree in 1857 As the industrial revolution took shape the school formalized its engineering curriculum and the school s first dean Charles H Snow changed the name of the school to the School of Applied Science During this time the engineering school officially separated from the university s arts and science school then called University College In 1894 the University of the City of New York moved its engineering school to a new campus in the Bronx 12 The new campus gave the university space to build larger science laboratories that could not be constructed at its Washington Square site 13 With the addition of the new campus under the leadership of Chancellor Henry Mitchell MacCracken the University of the City of New York renamed itself New York University The neighborhood surrounding the Bronx campus eventually became known as University Heights By 1920 separate electrical and chemical engineering departments were created and the school changed its name to the College of Engineering Expansion financial difficulties and acquisition Enrollment at New York University expanded considerably from the early 1900s into the postwar decades However by the early 1970s this growth ceased due to rising crime and financial troubles in New York City New York University faced financial hardships leading it to sell its University Heights campus that housed its engineering school to City University of New York which in turn renamed the campus Bronx Community College Also during that period from 1969 to 1975 Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn was forced to rely on subsidies provided by New York state to keep the school afloat The state supported Polytechnic on the basis that closing the school would create economic hardship locally 9 With both Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn and New York University facing financial difficulties the state brokered a merger with New York University s engineering school Polytechnic Institute acquired the faculty programs and students of New York University s engineering school to form Polytechnic Institute of New York 9 Polytechnic Institute of New York gained university status in 1985 and changed its name to Polytechnic University Wunsch Hall the oldest building on campus stands in contrast to the more modern buildings of MetroTech Center including the adjacent Dibner Library Distinction through technology By 1986 Polytechnic University in Brooklyn was the largest technological university in the New York metropolitan area and the second largest in graduate enrollment in the nation after the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Of the 300 engineering schools in the United States Polytechnic had the second largest graduate enrollment and was among the most successful institutions in the country as a producer of science and engineering graduates who went on to doctoral studies An average of 7 2 percent of Polytechnic graduates went on to achieve a Ph D compared with two other schools with large engineering programs Carnegie Mellon with an average of 6 percent and Princeton with 4 5 percent 9 Polytechnic University became well known for its research centers in electrophysics and polymer blends Present Enrollment History 1986 5 100 students 9 2015 5 212 students 14 Discussions about a merger with Polytechnic University and New York University began in 2004 Four years later Polytechnic University and New York University agreed to take steps toward a merger beginning with a formal affiliation between the two schools This affiliation resulted in the school changing its name to Polytechnic Institute of New York University 15 The schools officially merged in 2014 when the New York State Regents approved the change of charter making NYU the sole member of Polytechnic University 16 17 Since the merger applications to the school and incoming SAT scores have increased substantially The school has also experienced an influx of students coming from outside of New York state Fundraising and faculty research awards have increased since the merger 15 The school also opened a bioengineering facility in partnership with the medical and dental schools 18 A gift of 100 million from Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon in 2015 resulted in the school changing its name to the Tandon School of Engineering New York University has committed to investing over 500 million to its engineering school in the coming years 19 In 2022 NYU announced it will invest 1 billion in the school to hire 40 tenure track faculty members improve lab and student spaces and bolster the cybersecurity and artificial intelligence programs 20 21 FundraisingThe school has had several fundraising campaigns over the years From 2001 to 2005 the school raised more than 275 million 22 Alumnus Joseph J Jacobs who founded Jacobs Engineering Group one of the largest engineering and construction companies in the world gave the school more than 30 million over the course of his life 23 Name Polytechnic Institute Electrostatic Laboratory 1903 1904 The school started from two origins and has carried a number of different names 1854 Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute University of the City of New York School of Civil Engineering and Architecture founding names separate institutions 1889
