New York University Polytechnic School of Engineering is one of the 18 schools and colleges that comprise New York University (NYU). Founded in 1854, the school is the second oldest private engineering and technology school in the United States.[2] Curriculum is based on a European polytechnic university model emphasizing instruction of technical arts and applied sciences. The school's main campus is in Brooklyn's MetroTech Center, an urban university-industry science and technology park.

On May 17, 1853 a group of Brooklyn businessmen wrote a charter to establish a school for young men. Named 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 ages 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. 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. Poly Prep is now located in the Dyker Heights section of Brooklyn. Polytechnic Institute moved to its present location in 1957, the former site of the American Safety Razor factory, where it became a co-educational institution. In the early 1970s New York University faced financial hardships leading it to sell its University Heights campus that housed NYU's engineering school. Polytechnic Institute of Brooklyn acquired the faculty and programs of New York University's School of Engineering and Science in 1973 to form Polytechnic Institute of New York. Polytechnic Institute of New York gained university status in 1985 and changed its name to Polytechnic University. In 2008 the school became affiliated with NYU once again and Polytechnic University changed its name to Polytechnic Institute of New York University. The school fully merged with NYU in 2014 leading to its present name, New York University Polytechnic School of Engineering.
