About The Area

One of the unique advantages of attending CSI is our 204-acre park-like campus, the largest in New York City (NYC).  Another is our location in one of the world's greatest cultural and business regions.

CSI students have the cultural riches of the entire City at their disposal, and take advantage of the metropolis as "a living classroom" where culture, politics, businesses, media, and theater, offer a microcosm of the country and the world.

Coursework at CSI often includes field trips to the City's art galleries, museums, the financial center, the Theater District, various ethnic neighborhoods, and fieldwork in a diverse and complicated ecosystem.

Beyond the experience of New York City, students at CSI may also participate in dynamic study abroad and exchange programs in over 35 countries.

CSI's intensive classroom instruction, coupled with hands-on research and real world experience, give students a competitive edge when applying to graduate schools or for positions in their chosen professions.  CSI's international educational experiences are not only intellectually and socially rewarding, they help CSI students develop a respect for the interdependence of humankind as they become tomorrow's professionals and our future leaders.
