History [edit]

1930s-1950s [edit]

The School of Professional Studies was established in 1934[1] as the Division of General Education (DGE). During the Depression year, when almost 25% of the U.S. workforce was unemployed, the DGE responded with training programs for new social workers in the Temporary Emergency Relief Association, the city's public welfare agency, and the Home Relief Bureau. As the city emerged from the Depression, DGE created the Washington Square Writing Center, the Center for Graphic Design, and began its first art workshops.[ citation needed ]

Shortly after World War II, in response to increasing demand for skills, training, and for-credit courses, DGE developed, among other new programs, a Certificate in General Education that helped veterans fulfill requirements under the G.I. Bill. DGE also formulated the Management Institute to focus on courses for business and industry.[ citation needed ]

In 1954, the school was renamed the Division of General Education and Extension Services (DGEES) to reflect the full scope of its activities. The school offered courses at 19 locations in the tri-state area. Enrollment surpassed any other individual school at NYU, and income reached $2 million for the first time. New departments were created, including the Office of Special Services to Business and Industry, and the Liberal Arts in Extension program.[ citation needed ]

In the 1960s, the Office of Community Service Programs and the Division of Business and Management was created. New associate degree offerings in the liberal arts, business, public service, and physical therapy laid the groundwork for the future Paul McGhee Division for adult learners returning to college to earn a degree.[ citation needed ]

In 1971, the school was renamed the School of Continuing Education (SCE). New diploma programs were created in business, data processing, computer technology, and systems analysis. The Institute for Paralegal Studies was created. The General Studies Program was instituted to offer two years of instruction to college-age students. A boom in the real estate market drove rapid expansion of the Real Estate Institute.[ citation needed ]

SCE began ramping up its IT offerings in the 1970s, and in the 1980s, the school extended this growth by expanding its publishing and business programs. SCE's Master of Science in Real Estate was launched, eventually becoming the largest such program in the country.[ citation needed ]

1990s [edit]

The 1990s witnessed rapid growth in new courses and students. SCE explored virtual and Internet-based learning, and new degree and certificate programs were created in hospitality and tourism, real estate, digital technology, and media. Following technological advances in media, the Center for Advanced Digital Applications was formed. In 1998, the school was renamed the School of Continuing and Professional Studies (SCPS).[ citation needed ]

2010s-2020s [edit]

The school was renamed the NYU School of Professional Studies in 2014. In July 2021, Angie Kamath was appointed as the School's dean.[ citation needed ]

As of 2021, the school offers 20 graduate degree programs and 3 traditional bachelor's degrees. Through its Division of Applied Undergraduate Studies, students who cannot attend school full-time, transfer students, as well as older students who wish to return to school, can complete a bachelor's or associate degree. NYU SPS also offers continuing education courses and certificates.
