University of New York Tirana (UNYT) is an accredited private higher education institution in Tirana, Albania. Inaugurated in September 2002, it is the first private university in the country.

UNYT offers locally Bachelor’s degrees conferred by the State University of New York's Empire State College and study programs through the SUNY Learning Network.

Most UNYT faculty members are foreign-educated Albanians.[1] UNYT offers Bachelor, Master, and Doctoral degrees.

Since September 2004, UNYT, in collaboration with Institut Universitaire Kurt Bösch in Sion, Switzerland and the University of Sunderland, offers a Master of Business Administration program.
