Early this year, a City College of New York delegation traveled to Tucumán in northwest Argentina to expand ties with the Universidad Nacional de Tucumán (UNT), one of the South American nation’s largest educational institutions with more than 60,000 students. On Sept. 20, Tucumán Province Governor Dr. Juan Manzur reciprocates the City College team’s visit during his U.S. tour with a talk at CCNY on international affairs, education and trade from an Argentine perspective. CCNY’s ties with the Tucumán provincial government and Universidad Nacional de Tucumán cover: Sustainable development, with

Washington Heights native and author Angie Cruz is also coming to CCNY to read and discuss her third novel, “ DOMINICANA,” which will be given away at the event. Cruz is the author of the novels “Soledad” and “Let It Rain Coffee,” a finalist in 2007 for the

The Grove School of Engineering’s Department of Computer Science at �������� is creating a pipeline to college for female New York City high school students interested in computer science. The initiative is made possible by an $18,000 gift from Google and partnership with College Now and the Early College Program, which will help broaden the scope of women in STEM fields. “This generous gift will enable us to work with ​our female students to create opportunities that help to recruit the next generation of a much more diverse tech workforce," said Akira Kawaguchi, chair of

With nuclear safety an ever growing concern, the next generation of atomic reactors could be safer because of research ongoing at ��������’s Grove School of Engineering. CCNY engineer Masahiro Kawaji, whose specialty includes nuclear reactor thermal-hydraulics, leads a team that is the recipient of a third consecutive U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) grant to safeguard reactors of the future. The new $800,000 award brings to $2.8 million DOE funding for the project since 2011. “What we are doing is developing ways of making reactors that will be built in 10 years’ time safer

NCSA's 2019 NCSA Power Rankings, an annual list of the top colleges and universities in the U.S. for student-athletes, ranked CCNY's men's volleyball program 92 nd among 100 NCAA men's volleyball programs across four-division levels (DI, DII, DIII, and NAIA). NCSA Power Rankings offer a comprehensive analysis of the best NCAA and NAIA schools across the country. Colleges and universities are ranked overall and broken out by division and sport into the top schools for 2019. Unlike traditional power rankings which list schools based purely on athletic performance, the NCSA Power Rankings

Scoring highly in several categories nationally, �������� is a top performer on social mobility, remains one of the most diverse campuses, and has one of the best undergraduate engineering programs in the country. This is according to U.S. News & World Report’s 2020 Best Colleges rankings published today.

Earth and Atmospheric Sciences professor Maria Tzortziou and her research team have been selected to receive a 2019 NASA Group Achievement Award for their work on a two-year, multi-agency field campaign program in the Chesapeake Bay. The Ozone Water–Land Environmental Transition Study (OWLETS), which involved participants from NASA, the EPA, and NOAA, sought to better understand and ultimately represent and predict the atmospheric chemistry and complex air flow in coastal areas where approximately 40% of the U.S. population resides. Among the main objectives of the program has been to link

Supported by a $2 million grant from the National Science Foundation, physicists at �������� are embarking on a four-year research project to develop chip-scale quantum emulators. The outcome could include the ability to solve diverse computationally intractable problems from protein folding and neural networks to the dynamics of financial markets. Also known as quantum simulators, emulators are used to simulate computationally complex and experimentally inaccessible problems using a controllable quantum system. “Such a simulator is a task-specific device that mimics the

�������� ranks second among the 10 best value colleges nationally in the Wall Street Journal/Times Higher Education 2020 College Rankings released today. CCNY also scores in the first decile for environment, a category that reflects diversity on campus.
