Our History

The State University's commitment to serve underprepared students more extensively resulted in the creation in 1966, of four Urban Centers. The Centers, located in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Albany, and Buffalo, were funded by the Governor and the New York State Legislature, to provide occupational training and college preparatory programs.
