Global Public Health/Nursing graduates will be well-prepared for exciting careers in a variety of settings, including community and governmental organizations, clinical healthcare settings, and educational/research institutions. Students who complete the Global Public Health/Nursing degree will complete all the same nursing major courses and clinical hours as in the existing state approved nursing major at NYU.

Since its founding in 1831, NYU has been an innovator in higher education, reaching out to an emerging middle class, embracing an urban identity and professional focus, and promoting a global vision that informs its 19 schools and colleges.

Today, that trailblazing spirit makes NYU one of the most prominent and respected research universities globally, featuring top-ranked academic programs and accepting fewer than one in five undergraduates. Anchored in New York City and with degree-granting campuses in Abu Dhabi and Shanghai and 11 study away sites throughout the world, NYU is a leader in global education, with more international students and more students studying abroad than any other US university.

NYU students come from nearly every state and 133 countries. The university draws upon the diverse backgrounds of our faculty, staff, and students, ensuring its scholarship and teaching benefit from a wide range of perspectives. NYU takes its role as an engine of social mobility seriously and stands out among the top US universities in its representation of low-income and first-generation students within its community.

Among the largest private universities in the US, NYU provides a rigorous, demanding education to more than 50,000 students and undertakes nearly $1 billion in research annually. It counts among its faculty recipients of the highest scholarly honours and is a top producer of patents and revenue from licensing among US universities. NYU has a vast network of alumni who have succeeded across professions, from the sciences to the arts and government, throughout the world.
