About the Institution
NYIT-Amman offers a sliding tuition cost from the compared to the U.S. tuition to support students who strive to earn an Internationally recognized degree. All students who successfully complete the program in Amman earn the same degree as students studying in New York. In 1910, NYIT?s predecessor, New York Technical Institute, was licensed by the New York State Board of Regents. In 1955, NYIT opened under a provisional charter granted by the New York State Board of Regents to NYIT; its first campus opened at 500 Pacific Street in Brooklyn, in New York City.[1] The founders of NYIT, and in particular, Alexander Schure, Ph.D.,[2] started NYIT with the mission of offering career-oriented professional education, providing all qualified students access to opportunity, and supporting applications-oriented research that benefits the larger world. Schure later served as NYIT's first president.[2] NYIT sought to meet critical national demands, particularly the need for scientists, engineers, and high-level technicians in the United States.[3] In the higher education community at the time, a debate arose around the concern that humanities studies would be overshadowed by too much emphasis on science and engineering. NYIT's goal was to create a balance between science/engineering and a liberal arts education, and ever since, it has been focusing on this model to prepare students for current and future careers. NYIT's mission resonated among industry and learners. By the 1958-1959 academic year, the university had more than 300 students, and the time had come to expand its physical operations.
