Groups of students from New York University will soon be making Tulsa their temporary home.
Officials have announced that New York City-based NYU, in partnership with Tulsa's George Kaiser Family Foundation, will be establishing an academic center in Tulsa, with plans that include collaborating with local universities on research and other projects.
The center, to launch the spring semester of 2025, will be modeled after similar NYU academic centers in Washington, D.C., and Los Angeles and will support a variety of programs in research, innovation, economic and workforce development.
