NYU Semester Study Programs

Through a partnership between NYU Shanghai and NYU New York, newly admitted students in the following master’s programs have the opportunity to spend their first semester living full-time in Shanghai and taking in-person coursework at NYU Shanghai.

NYU Semester Study Programs

These semester-study programs, known as SPS Start@NYU Shanghai and MOT Shanghai-NYC, are for students who are interested in having a unique two-campus, international study experience for their master’s degree. Following their first semester in Shanghai, students travel to NYU New York for the remainder of their degree.

Participating students enjoy a special cohort-based experience across Shanghai and New York that only a university like NYU with its global presence can provide. Students benefit from the resources and connections of NYU in Shanghai and in New York, ultimately getting the best of both worlds for a truly immersive, transnational program.
