Support the President's Priorities Fund
Support for the President's Priorities Fund enables the University President to direct funding toward groundbreaking initiatives, centers of knowledge, and global engagement programs aligned to NYU’s four strategic pathways:
Lead the world in interdisciplinary collaboration for innovation and impact.
NYU will be distinguished by interdisciplinary, multi-school, and multi-location research and educational programs that take full advantage of our unique scale, breadth, and global network to generate high-impact research on critical issues facing the world and offer novel opportunities to students.
Position NYU as the #1 place to be for discovery, innovation, and entrepreneurship with a global perspective.
NYU will leverage key strengths in science and technology, entrepreneurship, and our global position and convening power, among others, to create a distinctive and world-class ecosystem that is a magnet for talent and makes us a preferred partner for academic institutions, industry, and government. Our ability to draw upon deep assets across the University, including those in the arts and humanities, social sciences, health, business, law, and policy, will multiply our real-world impact and help make NYU a champion of progress on many key global challenges.
Lead the world in global education and research.
NYU will be the world’s leading University in global education and research, featuring a vibrant network of academic locations around the world; strong support for globally oriented research and creative work; a large and thriving population of international students, faculty, and staff; and global study experiences that define an NYU undergraduate education, giving students a unique edge relative to their peers.
Build and sustain a welcoming and supportive community in which students, faculty, and staff can flourish and timely graduation is a top priority.
NYU will be a vibrant and diverse, welcoming and accessible global community in which students, faculty, and staff feel supported, connected, and inspired to do their best work. We will be diligent and persistent in reducing and eliminating barriers to success, whether measured in terms of timely progress to graduation for students, efficient and effective provision of research and teaching support for faculty, or robust opportunities for professional development and growth for staff.
