There is also a two-semester CS M.Eng program that is based at the emerging Cornell Tech campus in New York City. Close proximity to industry and the start-up scene is central to this option. The program emphasizes entrepreneurship and external engagement.

The focused curriculum is designed and delivered by instructors who have experience along the path that leads from research to product realization to social impact. Course choice is much more limited compared to what is available on the Ithaca campus. However, the classes in NYC are smaller in size, less structured, and less aligned with departmental boundaries. Industrial partnering makes it possible to use the Masters Project as a stepping stone to a career in CS that is driven by entrepreneurship.

A weekly practicum features speakers with first hand knowledge of the entrepreneurial process.
