It provides students with an environment of scholars and resources that enrich the educational experience and support the faculty in the development of innovative programs. It is one of the largest private universities, has the second highest number of international students in the U.S., and sends more students to study abroad than any other college or university in the U.S. Through its 20 schools, colleges, institutes and programs, NYU conducts research and provides education in the arts and sciences, law, medicine, business, dentistry, education, nursing, engineering, the cinematic and dramatic arts, music, public administration, social work, and continuing and professional studies, among other areas.
