The New York UniversitySteinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development (commonly referred to as NYUSteinhardt) is the education school of New York University. The school was founded as the School of Pedagogy in 1890. Prior to 2001, it was known as the NYU School of Education.

Contents

Located on NYU's founding campus in Greenwich Village, the Steinhardt School offers bachelor's, master's, advanced certificate, and doctoral programs in the fields of applied psychology, art, education, health, media, and music. NYU Steinhardt also offers several degree programs at NYU's Brooklyn campus. [3]

History

Founded in 1890 as the School of Pedagogy, the school soon added courses in psychology, counseling, art, and music. In 1910, it established the first United States university chair in experimental education. During the 1920s, enrollment increased from 990 to more than 9,500 students. The Education Building on Washington Square opened in 1930 and still serves as the School's home today.

The School was named the Steinhardt School of Education in 2001, in recognition of a $10 million donation, the largest it has ever received, from Michael and Judy Steinhardt. In 2007, the school was renamed the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development to reflect the diversity of its academic programs.

NYU Steinhardt enrolls roughly 5950 students from 67 countries, consisting of approximately 2540 undergraduates, 2820 master's and advanced certificate students, 390 PhD students, and 140 professional doctorate students.

A music department was established in 1925 within the School of Education. In 1968, [16] the New York College of Music, which was an American conservatory of music originally founded in 1878 and located in Manhattan, [17] closed and merged with NYU, leading to the music department of the School of Education to serve both in its original capacity and as the spiritual continuation of the New York College of Music. [18] Continuing to provide the unique educational experience of a university school of pedagogy and performance as well as inheriting the rich performance tradition from New York College of Music, the Department of Music and Performing Arts Professions was developed and is now home to nearly all of NYU's music performance and music education degree programs. Steinhardt MPAP enrolls nearly 1600 students in undergraduate, master's and doctoral studies in music technology, music business, music composition, music education, film scoring, music performance practices, performing arts therapies, and performing arts education (in music, dance, and drama). Programs integrate performance, research, technology, and practice. [19]

The Nordoff–Robbins approach to music therapy is a method developed to help children with psychological, physical, or developmental disabilities. It originated from the 17-year collaboration of Paul Nordoff and Clive Robbins beginning in 1958, with early influences from Rudolph Steiner and anthroposophical philosophy and teachings. Nordoff–Robbins music therapy is based on the idea that everyone, regardless of their health or abilities, can benefit from music. It suggests that music as therapy can improve communication, support change, and help people live more resourcefully and creatively. Nordoff–Robbins music therapists practice globally, having graduated from training programs in various countries such as the United Kingdom, the United States, Australia, Germany, New Zealand, Scotland, South Africa, and the Far East.
