Students Help Provide Medical Care in Dominican Republic

In June, a group of students from the College of Osteopathic Medicine (NYITCOM) traveled to rural communities in the Dominican Republic with the medical school's Center for Global Health. Under the supervision of NYITCOM faculty, the medical students spent a week gaining invaluable clinical experience that allowed them to hone their osteopathic techniques and observe how medical care is provided in resource-limited environments. NYITCOM students shared their knowledge with local physicians, led a first aid class, and evaluated, counseled, and educated patients in these medically underserved communties. NYITCOM's Center for Global Health is dedicated to developing healthcare professionals who are empathetic leaders and change agents, ready to tackle the global burden of disease and health disparities at home and abroad.

Engineering Students' Bridge Design Earns First Place

Four New York Tech College of Engineering and Computing Sciences undergraduate students earned first place and a $500 prize at the 2026 KEEN Bridge Design Competition for their outstanding bridge design and structural efficiency, topping competitors from 15 other universities nationwide. The challenge required teams to construct a 36-inch bridge using only cardstock and standard quarter-inch staples, and to meet a strict maximum weight limit of 200 grams, placing a premium on careful engineering and thoughtful design. The New York Tech team's winning construction weighed just 107.2 grams (less than four ounces) while supporting a load of 1,997.5 grams (4.404 pounds), achieving a strength-to-weight ratio of 18:6.
