Insights, Impact, and Innovation
at NYU Steinhardt
|
Research at American universities plays an essential role in improving our communities and lives. Not only does it inform policy and lay the groundwork for advances in vital areas of human development, but it also gives the next generation of scholars a chance to discover where their passions intersect with society’s greatest needs.
Now more than ever, NYU Steinhardt is proud to nurture new insights by uplifting boundary-breaking research. We believe that interdisciplinary exploration is the key to understanding the complexities of human life—because human life rarely fits into neat categories. That’s why we have a 135-year tradition of pioneering new academic programs and areas of discovery. It’s why we recently hosted a symposium exploring the intersection of art and health, why our students’ work and faculty’s thought leadership makes an impact in New York City and beyond, and why we’re home to many research centers and entities that seek insights to support diverse communities.
During this holiday season, I hope you’ll share in my gratitude for the researchers and scholars who continue to make strides in advancing human well-being.

Anne Collins Smith (MA ’98, Visual Arts Administration) has become the first Black American and the first Black native New Orleanian to hold a full curatorial role at the New Orleans Museum of Art. Her goal is to make the museum and its programs resonate even more with the multiplicity of audiences who both live in and visit New Orleans—a culmination of her Steinhardt master’s thesis on how museums can attract more diverse audiences.
