Students and facultyCity Tech has an enrollment of more than 17,000 students in over 66 baccalaureate, associate, and specialized certificate programs including several engineering technology fields as well as architecture, construction, nursing, hospitality management, entertainment technology, dental hygiene, vision care technology, technology teacher training and paralegal training. Non-degree continuing education is also offered, and serves approximately 14,000 students each year. City Tech is accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. HistoryCity Tech was founded in 1946 as The New York State Institute of Applied Arts and Sciences. The urgent mission at the time was to provide training to GIs returning from the Second World War and to provide New York with the technically proficient workforce it would need to thrive in the emerging post-war economy. No one in 1946 could have predicted the transformation the College has experienced. From its beginnings as an Institute—to being chartered as a community college—and subsequently transitioning to senior college status during the 1980s—it has grown from serving 246 students in 1946, to a population today of more than 30,000 degree and non-degree seeking students. {{Infobox university|name = Voorhees Technical Institute |native_name = |image_name = |image_size = |caption = |latin_name = |motto = |mottoeng = |established = 1881 |closed = 1971 (acq. by New York City Community College of City University) |type = Private |affiliation = |endowment = |city = New York City |state = New York |province = |country = USA |coor = |campus = Urban |former_names = The New York Trade School (1881–1961), The Technical Schools of the Metropolitan Museum of Art (1880) |free_label = |free = |colors = }}{{Infobox university |name = New York City Community College |native_name = |image_name = |image_size = |caption = |latin_name = |motto = |mottoeng = |established = 1946 |closed = 1964 (Joined City University System) |type = Public |affiliation = |endowment = |city = Brooklyn |state = New York |province = |country = USA |coor = |campus = Urban |former_names = The New York State Institute for Applied Arts & Sciences (1946–1953) |free_label = |free = |colors = }} Schools and departmentsSchool of Technology and DesignDepartments
School of Professional StudiesThe eleven departments housed in the school provide instruction at the associate and baccalaureate levels, leading to degrees in the areas of healthcare, business, hospitality, paralegal studies, human services and career and technology teacher education. Departments
School of Arts and SciencesThe School of Arts and Sciences is home to a number of majors: transfer degrees in Liberal Arts and Liberal Arts and Science, associate degrees in computer science and chemical technology, and the baccalaureate degree in applied mathematics. The school is also home to a new and rapidly growing bachelor's degree program in Biomedical Informatics, which is at the intersection of IT and biomedical research. Departments
LibraryThe college hired its first library director in 1957.[3] The current college library building went up around 1987.[3] In 2012 the library staff adopted an open-access policy to make its members' professional research publicly accessible online.[4] CampusCity Tech occupies nine buildings within Downtown Brooklyn's Tech Triangle, MetroTech BID and DUMBO. College Administration and Offices, the Ursula C. Schwerin Library, the School of Professional Studies, and the School of Arts & Sciences are primarily based in a complex formed by the Namm, Atrium, General, and Pearl buildings in MetroTech (300 Jay Street). The School of Technology & Design is primarily based in Voorhees Hall in DUMBO with Graphic Arts based in the MetroTech Complex. A supertall skyscraper designed by Renzo Piano, which would have been known as City Tech Tower and contain 65 floors for the college and 600 units of housing,[5] was proposed, but scrapped.[6][7][8] In October, 2013, City Tech held a ceremonial groundbreaking to mark the construction of a new 350,000 square foot academic complex at the corner of Tillary and Jay Streets in Downtown Brooklyn. The new complex will rise on the site formerly occupied by Klitgord Center. The new eight-story academic complex, which is currently unnamed, will be home to City Tech’s expanding programs in healthcare and the sciences. The departments that will be moved into the new building include the core sciences: Physics, Chemistry and Biological Sciences (including Biomedical Informatics). It will also be home to the health programs: Nursing, Radiologic Technology & Medical Imaging, Dental Hygiene, Restorative Dentistry, and Vision Care Technology. Included in the plans is a 1,000-seat concert hall quality auditorium, which when opened will be the largest of its kind in Downtown Brooklyn. A wellness center and faculty office space will also be located in the new space. AthleticsCity Tech teams participated as a member of the National Collegiate Athletic Association's Division III. City Tech began CUNYAC competition in the community college section from the conference's inception in the 1987-88 season, later to join its senior college section in the 1999-2000 season. Men's sports included basketball, cross country, soccer, tennis and volleyball; while women's sports included basketball, cross country, softball, tennis and volleyball. City Tech's athletic program is in hiatus until new facilities are available. Notable alumni
