As a result, the technologies we invent have a direct impact, receive authentic feedback, and achieve greater utility in the long run.

We built Cornell Tech to actively engage with communities near and far, leveraging the ultimate laboratory that is New York City. Decades of leadership in computer science and engineeringīorn out of Cornell’s historic Faculty of Computing and Information Science and College of Engineering, we are the next iteration of the university’s 150 years of leadership in engineering and computer science.Our bench of academic heavyweights is enhanced by change-making practitioners, recruited fresh from leading roles in the tech sector and teeming with insight on new ways to apply technology for a bigger impact. Their significant contributions to technology regularly make headlines and receive the highest awards from the National Science Foundation (NSF), the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the MacArthur Foundation, and others. Our top-ranked faculty members and researchers are widely published, patented, followed and cited. They are unafraid of experimentation and seek out opportunities to address the biggest challenges. Our people thrive on collisions of deep domain expertise and collaborations that transcend the industry/academic divide.
