Shaping the Future of Business
From master's degrees to continuing education certificates, our NYU SPS Division of Programs in Business (DPB) provides a solid foundation in the functional areas of business administration.
Message from the Associate Dean
Welcome to the Division of Programs in Business at NYU SPS.
Here, you’ll find more than an academic program—you’ll join a dynamic community where students, faculty, alumni, and industry partners come together to shape the future of business. Our classrooms are places where theory meets practice, where you’ll solve real challenges alongside faculty who have led at organizations like Google, HBO, Bank of America, and Ogilvy & Mather, and whose ideas influence global conversations in publications such as Harvard Business Review.
Across our four Centers of Excellence—Integrated Marketing & Communications, Management & Technology, Human Capital Management, and Finance & Taxation—you’ll discover programs designed not only to deepen your expertise but also to expand your perspective. Whether you are pursuing a graduate degree or building new skills through professional certificates, your learning journey here is immersive, relevant, and connected to the world around you.
Our alumni carry this experience into leadership roles across industries and continents, contributing to thriving organizations and vibrant communities. Their stories reflect what makes DPB unique: an education that is rigorous, applied, and deeply connected to the opportunities of New York City and beyond.
I invite you to explore how your ambitions can take shape here—and how you, too, can make a lasting impact.
