Core Components


Student with book

Gallatin’s Master of Arts program offers each student an opportunity to create an individualized, interdisciplinary program shaped according to his or her own vision.  With diverse goals, Gallatin students are often intellectual and professional pioneers, mapping new relationships among fields of knowledge.  The program has a set of core requirements, fulfilled within the Gallatin school, and also encourages students to use the resources available in the other graduate schools of NYU.


Experiential and Student-Directed Learning

Experiential Learning
