President Russell K. Hotzler College Statement and Statistics New York City College of Technology defines its educational mission broadly: to encompass the diversified pre-professional, professional, technical, liberal arts, science and specialized transfer programs that respond to the dynamic economic needs of the city and the metropolitan region. In its unique position as the senior college of technology within The City University of New York, the College offers associate and baccalaureate degree programs that provide more than 15,000 degree-students with highly relevant technical and professional programs and more than 15,000 continuing-education students with an array of educational opportunities. Graduates pursue careers in architectural and engineering technologies, computer technologies, entertainment and health professions, human services, advertising and publishing, hospitality, business and law-related professions. The College also offers programs in career and technology teacher education and the liberal arts and sciences, while its Business and Industry Training Center provides educational and technical assistance to corporations, unions and nonprofit and public agencies whose employees need their skills upgraded to remain competitive. New York City College of Technology provides an education that creatively merges the theoretical and the practical, providing a unique learning experience that draws on the strengths of the urban environment, excellence in teaching and specialized laboratories and facilities. It offers full access to higher education for all who seek fulfillment of personal, career and economic goals, and it is dedicated to the ideals of providing equal opportunity and of developing multicultural awareness and sensitivity. The College occupies nine buildings centered in downtown Brooklyn, including leased space in three buildings. A new academic building on the site of the College's Klitgord Center, currently in design, will provide approximately 350,000 gross square feet of new academic facilities, including classrooms and laboratories focused on science and clinical instruction.

This project will address the College's acute space deficit, as identified in its 2000 master plan amendment, by building a 350,000 SF facility on the site of the Klitgord Building. The new building will be a mixed-used facility with classrooms, computer labs, science labs, a 1,000-seat auditorium, physical education facilities, administrative offices, student services, a nursing simulation center and a dental hygiene clinic. Design of the facility is expected to finish in the latter half of 2011; the additional funding being requested is for construction. December 2013 (B) Pearl Building - Advertising and Graphic Design This project will provide a consolidated, state-of-the-art home for the Advertising, Design and Graphic Arts Department, which is dispersed in multiple buildings across the campus. For more than 50 years, this department has had an outstanding record of preparing students for creative careers in advertising, graphic design and communications media. To continue doing so, the department must have specialized instructional space that supports modern pedagogy and technology. This project will renovate space previously off-line in the Pearl Building. The new studios, computer labs and lab technician's office will provide a well-organized, efficient learning environment.

(B) Elevator Replacement, Namm & Voorhees Halls The elevators in Namm Hall are the busiest on campus. Their age and poor condition necessitate frequent maintenance, resulting in long queues of students, staff and faculty. New elevators are needed to move the high volume of vertical traffic more efficiently. This project will install eight new elevator cabs, controllers, dispatchers and hoisting motors, generators and equipment. As similar conditions exist in Voorhees Hall, this project also will install three new cabs and associated equipment in that building. $14,000 $3,050 $10,950 September 2012 (B) Bathroom ADA Upgrades The College's bathrooms are outdated and have resulted in numerous complaints from the College community. The project will create ADA-compliant bathrooms with improved ventilation in the Namm Hall complex. Approximately 45 bathrooms will be renovated. $12,400 $500 $11,900 March 2012 (B) NYCCT Infrastructure Upgrades Ph. II This project will provide the College with new and updated HVAC distribution equipment to the G Building, Voorhees Hall and Namm Hall. Additionally, the chillers in these buildings, which date to the initial construction of the buildings and soon will reach a non-repairable state, will be replaced. July 2014 (B) Campus-wide Roofing This project will repair and/or replace the roofs on the campus, particularly the buildings in the Namm Hall complex. Roofs typically need to be replaced every 15 to 20 years; without regular roof replacement, buildings become subject to water infiltration and building deterioration. Roof replacement is a critical measure to ensure the integrity of the facility. With a steady funding stream for roof repair, work can be scheduled on a regular basis, and the additional costs and inconveniences of emergency repairs can be avoided. April 2014
(B) Student Activities Center The College's Student Activities Center has been converted into swing space to support current construction projects. As a result, there is a need to create more spaces to accommodate training programs, performances and recreational activities. This project will convert an open space within Namm Hall into multi-purpose space. The space will be outfitted with folding doors for maximum flexibility and be designed to encourage interaction between students and among faculty, staff and students. July 2013
City Reso-A Requests FY 2012 (City Council and Borough Presidents) (Costs in thousands) School of Technology Network Upgrade This project will upgrade the network infrastructure for the School of Technology to accommodate the creation and/or expansion of additional computer laboratories in Voorhees and to increase the network capacity to support growing administrative and instructional applications, including the University's ERP project. $1,500 January 2013 Upgrade Campus Entry - 300 Jay Street This project will renovate the main entrance to Namm Hall. The entrance, with its proximity to public transportation and its direct access to key academic and administrative functions, is central to the campus. The entrance is not wheelchair-accessible, it is poorly heated and ventilated and it is highly congested. This project will correct these deficiencies and enhance the overall appearance of the building. The upgraded entrance will complement the future Academic Building I to be constructed across the street. December 2013 Outfitting of Advertising Design/Graphic Arts This project will purchase and install lab equipment for instructional spaces being created on the first floor of the Pearl Street Building following the completion of the current structural repairs project. Computers and computer furniture will be provided for six labs for the Advertising Design/Graphic Arts Department. Additionally, state-of-the-art print processing equipment and storage units for printing equipment and materials will be installed in the labs. CE $1,200 December 2012 Culinary Arts Department Upgrades The College, using State and City funding, recently completed the renovation of the Culinary Arts Department's training kitchen. This project will continue capital improvements to the Department's facilities by renovating the adjacent dining room and upgrading two pastry labs. The dining room, where students, faculty and staff sample the food prepared in the training kitchen, has not been renovated in more than 20 years. The project will modernize the dining room and provide enhanced lighting and equipment for pastry students. $750 April 2013 Upgrade of Exterior Public Spaces This project will renovate exterior areas on campus to create places for congregation for the College community. This will include upgrades to public walkways and sidewalks along Jay and Tillary Streets; installation of planters and associated landscaping in these areas and at the Namm Hall Atrium entrance; and installation of new lighting and finishes to exterior walls. $400 November 2012 Reso-A Request FY 2012 Total $5,850
