About the SPS Parents Council

The SPS Parents Council is a group of philanthropic families who have a strong connection to NYU SPS. Council members may attend meetings with the Dean, social gatherings, and special events where they have opportunities to engage with School leaders, the Dean, and faculty.

The Council meets twice per year with Dean Kamath in a dynamic conversation centered on the student experience and recent SPS successes. Members are also invited to attend regional gatherings and virtual events throughout the year.
