100 Best Art & Design schools in New York State

Updated:

EduRank

Below is a list of best universities in New York State ranked based on their research performance in Art & Design. A graph of 3.57M citations received by 169K academic papers made by 123 universities in New York State was used to calculate publications' ratings, which then were adjusted for release dates and added to final scores.

We don't distinguish between undergraduate and graduate programs nor do we adjust for current majors offered. You can find information about granted degrees on a university page but always double-check with the university website.

Please note that our approach to subject rankings is based on scientific outputs and heavily biased on art-related topics towards institutions with computer science research profiles.
