Steinhardt School of Education

The Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development is one of 16 divisions within New York University and is the oldest professional school of education in the United States. Founded in 1890 as the School of Pedagogy, New York University's Steinhardt School was the first professional school devoted to teacher education established at an American university. In 1910, the School established the first university chair in experimental education in the United States. From 1920 to 1930 the School saw an expansion in enrollment from 993 to over 9500 students. In 1930, the Education Building on Washington Square was opened and still serves as the School's home. The School was renamed the Steinhardt School of Education in 2001, honoring a $10 million donation -- the largest the school had ever received -- from Michael and Judy Steinhardt. Michael Steinhardt was a highly successful hedge-fund manager who is now retired. In March 2007 the school was renamed the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development, to reflect the diverse nature of its academic programs.

  • Maria Ly is quite literally a Rock Star. You’ll often find her hanging off a 5.13a grade rock climbing route, she is the rock star co-founder of Skimble (which is incubated by Rock Health), and you can find her rock formation photography featured in Outside Magazine.

  • March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.

  • Mayank is an inventor and zebra-enthusiast. He developed Stripespotter, a biological barcode scanner for zebras, and is a part of the team behind Facebook insights. By way of India to Oman to the US, Mayank can be found behind the wheel of a red Porsche dreaming up his next big idea.
