Approximately eight students obtain the Ph.D. degree each year.
Research is supported by government grants and contracts.
The graduate program is of central importance to this research-oriented department. Close faculty and student contact is nurtured by weekly departmental colloquia, seminars in major research areas, and a daily coffee hour. The high quality of our research effort and the fact that New York is a conduit for international travel, attract a steady stream of prominent visitors to the department. New York University supports a policy of equal treatment and opportunity for its faculty, students, and staff members, without regard to gender, sexual orientation, marital or parental status, race, color, religion, national origin, age, or handicap.
