Student Research
From classrooms to labs to the community, we encourage students to embrace inquiry and define the impact of their discoveries. You might develop prototypes for local startups, VR-based therapies, bioprinted organs, or buildings ready to resist climate change. And that’s just the beginning.
Working in the Entrepreneurship and Technology Innovation Center has definitely taken me on a journey. I’ve gained so much invaluable experience, and I’ve thrived in working on things that I am passionate about. I’m excited to have this practice for my future career.
[Participating in Sigma Xi] was overwhelming, especially since it was my first time participating in a research event organized by a well-known honor society organization. All of what I learned from this experience can be useful after graduation.

SOURCE (Symposium on University Research and Creative Expression) is a fantastic opportunity to not only summarize and share the work that we’ve done but also to mingle with our peers and see all they’ve been working on.
Andrew Cecora (M.B.A. ’24, D.O. ’25) Business Administration and Osteopathic Medicine
Understanding the effects of cues on medical image viewing is critical because medical professionals have a limited understanding of how information provided by AI tools might affect how images are viewed. Through my research, I will track where radiologists look, how long they look, how much eye movement is involved, and the efficacy of their eye movement.
As I desire to pursue a career in pathology, this unique research experience will help me to achieve my goals and prepare me for a career as a physician-scientist. I want to incorporate research into my future career and translate my preclinical findings to the bedside.
At New York Tech, the search for a cure is not only a collective, multidisciplinary effort but also one using technology to improve detection, slow progression, and develop novel therapies.
Focusing on IT, bioengineering, energy, and green technologies, our business accelerator sees students and faculty from across the university collaborate on solutions for our industry partners and local startups.
Through research and rehabilitation, College of Osteopathic Medicine physicians and health experts help athletes train better, address their injuries, and recover from concussions.
Fusing engineering and biology, faculty and students conduct research to develop new drug therapies, study tissue regeneration, improve PFAS detection, and understand the brain-body connection.
