A Message from Dean Kamath
March 2026
Dear NYU SPS Community,
Every day, our students, faculty, and partners are creating impact, shaping the future of our campus, our industries, and our world.
I’m excited to share just some of the work happening across Pathways that is driving this impact, creating momentum, expanding access, and opening new interdisciplinary pipelines that strengthen both learning and leadership.
Our Pathways in Action
Access
Expanding Networks, Creating Opportunity
At March 4th’s Green Jobs Fair, students will network with employers in sustainability fields and learn about sustainability jobs and internships at various for-profit, non-profit, and government sector organizations. Be sure to stop by the Center for Global Affairs’ table!
On March 26th, NYU Alumni in Tech will also host From Code to Customers, a panel for Integrated Marketing & Communications and Management & Technology students exploring how product, marketing, and engineering collaborate to turn technical decisions into real customer impact.
Curriculum
Applied Learning in Action
The Lab for Transformative Leadership Spring ‘26 Cohort kicks off, offering participants an immersive, practice-driven experience designed to cultivate principled and forward-thinking leaders.
Our social media team is pulling back the curtain on the most intriguing elements of some SPS courses and how they come together to create a real-world learning experience. They recently “deCLASSified” Marketing of Conferences and Events in the Tisch Center of Hospitality, which covers how industry-responsive coursework prepares students to lead in dynamic global markets.
Student Success
Global Leadership at the Highest Level
Students from the Center for Global Affairs participated in the historic first session of the Preparatory Committee of the United Nations Diplomatic Conference of Plenipotentiaries on the Prevention and Punishment of Crimes against Humanity. Their engagement in this landmark international process reflects the caliber of scholarship, professionalism, and global perspective cultivated at CGA and throughout SPS.
Storytelling
An Interdisciplinary Spotlight
The Schack Institute’s 9th Annual Sustainable Real Estate Conference, Beyond the Blueprint: Climate, Community, and Capital, convened cross-sector leaders to examine the future of sustainable development, with CGA as a key partner.
Student moderators documented the experience through Day in the Life videos, highlighting how academic preparation translates into real-world impact and how storytelling elevates both ideas and the leaders behind them.
Culture
Investing in Community
Congratulations to the SPS recipients of this year’s NYU Work Life Caring Culture Grants, which continue to support initiatives that strengthen belonging, wellness, and engagement across our School, underscoring that community care is foundational to collective success.
March Happenings:
On March 11, we come together for NYU One Day. Every act of participation advances scholarship, innovation, and opportunity for our students and reinforces our collective vision that defines NYU SPS.
Schack will host its REIT Symposium on March 25, convening industry leaders and alumni to explore trends shaping the future of real estate investment.
Warmly,
Angie Kamath
