The State University of New York (acronym SUNY; usually pronounced "SOO-nee") is a system of public institutions of higher education in New York, United States. It is the largest comprehensive system of universities, colleges, and community colleges in the United States, with a total enrollment of 413,000 students, plus 1.1 million continuing education students spanning 64 campuses across the state. This also makes SUNY the largest university system in the United States in terms of population. The SUNY system has 28,000 faculty members and some 6,650 degree and certificate programs overall.

Though SUNY is comprised of many top ranked institutions, it is highlighted by Binghamton University (one of the top universities in the country, ranked top 30 among all public schools) and SUNY-Geneseo (one of the top undergraduate colleges in the country).

The State University of New York was established in 1948 by then-Governor of New York, Thomas E. Dewey, through legislative implementation of recommendations made by the Temporary Commission on the Need for a State University (1946-1948). The Commission was chaired by Owen D. Young, then-Chairman of the General Electric Company.
