Career Services


Will fairs, workshops, on-campus recruiting hosted by NYU and Poly be open to all students on both campuses?

Career fairs will be available at no cost to Poly students. Workshops and other programs will also be open to Poly students but may have little or modest cost, as they would to NYU students. Poly will not be included in on-campus recruiting at NYU this year nor will NYU students be included in on-campus recruiting by Poly. Discussions relating to collaborative arrangements for on-campus recruiting have begun.

Will Poly maintain its one-on-one approach to career services for students or will it be required to adopt the NYU approach?

In the short term, each institution will continue with its own approaches to career services. Like Poly, the NYU approach offers individual career counseling as well as on-line and group activities.

Poly Engineering students participate in a Co-Op program. Will NYU engineering students have access to (or be required to participate in) this program?

Poly students are encouraged to participate in internship programs that are arranged and administered by Poly. This arrangement will continue in the near term. NYU students will not generally have access to or be required to participate in this program, although future students pursuing dual degrees involving engineering may be expected to participate. In the future, a co-op standard should be collaborative developed, creating an integrated model for internships.

Will Poly students have access to NUeVita?

Yes, there may be a small cost (to be determined) associated with data storage and data transfer that would need to be negotiated.
