i2e is nyu-poly’s fundamental new way of approaching academics and research by arming students

with the tools, resources, and inspiration to begin research and turn their discoveries into applications,

products, and services that take flight as student-owned companies.

the summer institute for stem educators is an introduction to the i2e classroom model that includes

integrating creativity, inventiveness and technology into your stem curriculum.

workshops will provide an informed understanding of what technical and research professionals do.

you will be exposed to experimental techniques, design skills, teamwork and the tools of the trade in

an effort to establish and enhance your lesson plans. A new free technology application you can use

in the classroom will be presented.

CLassrooM topiCs

it starts in the CLassrooM...in this program our objective is to bring creativity

and innovation into the high school stem

curriculum…to think like an inventor, you have to

put down the textbook and get your hands dirty.

project-based coursework confronts students

with problems that don’t have easy solutions.

By figuring out the best solution, students learn

to push their thinking, refine their designs, and

develop a taste for invention and innovation.

Grows in the Laboratory...some have called what’s going on in the halls of

nyu-poly a “research renaissance,” a return to

the spirited, rigorous scientific exploration that

contributed to such life-altering advancements as

the mass production of penicillin, the laser and cell

phone technology. learn about nyu-poly’s Annual

undergraduate summer research program,

which gives undergraduates invaluable, hands-on

research experience.

responds to a reaL-worLd, 21st Century needs...necessity is the mother of invention, and the

needs of the 21st century are massive: cleaner

ways to fuel our cars; more efficient drugs to treat

our sick; and safer ways to protect our online

information. i2e encourages faculty and students

to apply their research to problems that may seem

too big to solve but can no longer be ignored.

and CoMes to Life in the MarketpLaCe.our faculty and students invent products and

applications that form the foundations of start-up

companies. institute support and our business

incubators give faculty and students a launching

pad to successful entrepreneurship.
