Academics

These are programs uniquely designed to the needs of a digital age. Our programs teach the fundamentals, but go far beyond theory in a way you can’t find elsewhere. They teach the ideas, vision and skills to drive the next great tech revolution.

Our PhD candidates pursue leading-edge tech research with guidance from faculty members in their respective fields. More broadly they have the opportunity to interact with the entire Cornell Tech campus to add business and entrepreneurial perspectives to their work.

The Runway Startup Postdoc Program is part business school, part research institution, and part startup incubator. Based at the Jacobs Technion-Cornell Institute, Runway ushers recent PhDs in digital technology fields from an academic mindset to an entrepreneurial outlook.
