TECH@NYU

We want students continually building anything together. Why? It takes a lot of junk, a bag of bad ideas, and shoddy execution scars to learn and internalize the nuances of great product and business. Tech@NYU is the sandbox that students need: a place to experiment, a forum for recognition, a classroom for discussion and learning. Events are held throughout the academic year, open to all students, with a focus on consistency as to build community: + Every week, we host HackDays and, in co... llaboration with Parsons The New School of Design, DesignDays. At HackDays, we teach new technologies, talk tech, code, and perhaps design. At DesignDays, we may design together, think, discuss, and address design problems, explore how designers can become entrepreneurs, and perhaps code. + Every month, we hold DemoDays. Projects students have worked on, either at HackDays, DesignDays, or in their dorm rooms get 2-5 minutes each to show the rest of the student population what they’ve produced. This is a celebration of sorts, a celebration of creation. + Every semester, we host Startup Week, a weeklong event dedicated to the innovation occurring NYC and exposing students to startup culture. + We also engage regularly with a number of NYC entrepreneurs who serve as mentors to students. Only a couple years old, Tech@NYU is one of the most diverse, most forward-moving student organizations in NYC.More
