The Polytechnic Institute of New York University (New York University School of Engineering and Technology), often referred to as Polytechnic Institute of NYU, NYU Polytechnic, or NYU Poly, is one of the 18 schools and colleges that make up New York University (NYU). It was founded in 1854 in the City of Brooklyn (later incorporated into New York City as the Borough of Brooklyn).

Today it is one of the oldest private technological institutes in the United States, and has a distinguished history in civil engineering, construction management, electrical engineering, polymer chemistry, aerospace, and mechanical engineering. Its Carnegie Classification is Doctorate-Granting "Research University" (high research activity). It was renamed after a 2015 donation of $100mil by Chandrika and Ranjan Tandon.
