Cornell New York City Tech

Cornell’s New York City Tech campus will be the first university to have a direct partnership with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, giving future students access to resources and expert advice as they look to bring ideas and innovations to market.

The university made the announcement on Tuesday morning at its temporary campus in New York’s Chelsea district, office space donated by Google. The first class of about 20 students will begin classes in January 2013 while construction proceeds on the main campus on Roosevelt Island, scheduled to open in 2017.
