Hebrew Technical Institute was a vocational High School in New York City. The school was founded on January 7, 1884〔(Hebrew Technical Institute, Twenty-fifth anniversary. 1884-1909 (1909). ) Retrieved from (archive.org ) on March 19, 2012.〕 and closed in 1939.〔(Historical Marker Database, Hebrew Technical Institute, 1884 - 1939. )〕 After completing two years at the school, students could specialize in wood-working, pattern making, metal working, instrument making, mechanical drawing, architectural drawing, wood carving, free-hand drawing or applied electricity. The school was founded after three Hebrew charity organizations formed a committee to promote technical education for the many Jewish immigrants arriving in New York at the time. The school originally opened at 206 East Broadway. After a number of relocations, the school moved into 34 and 36 Stuyvesant Street.〔 ==Notable alumni== *Arthur Hamerschlag, first President of Carnegie Mellon University, class of 1889. *Bern Dibner, founder of the Burndy Corporation, graduated ca. 1916.
