School Description

Provided by New Jersey Institute of Technology

NJIT prepares its graduates for positions of leadership as professionals and as citizens; provides educational opportunities for a broadly diverse student body; responds to needs of large and small businesses, state and local governmental agencies, and civic organizations; partners with educational institutions at all levels to accomplish its mission; and advances the uses of technology as a means of improving the quality of life.

NJIT is New Jersey's science and technology university. We're proud of our 125 years of history, but that's just the beginning. We've doubled the size of campus in the last decade, pouring millions into major new research facilities to give our students the edge they need in today's demanding high-tech marketplace.

NJIT offers 92 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in six specialized schools instructed by expert faculty, 98 percent of whom hold the highest degree in their field. You can double major, design an interdisciplinary major, opt for an accelerated bachelor’s or master’s degree program, and cross-register at nearby schools such as Rutgers University–Newark and the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey.

Our academic programs are fully accredited by the appropriate accrediting boards, commissions and associations such as Middle States, ABET, and NAAB.

For undergraduates, the most popular majors include architecture, engineering, and computer science, and for the past several years, student interest in the sciences and liberal arts has been steadily increasing. Our accelerated bachelor’s and master’s programs are gaining in popularity every year as well.

At the graduate level, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering, and civil engineering are all hot areas, as are computer science, information systems, mathematical sciences, environmental science, management, and architecture. This fall, NJIT’s graduate school enrolled more than 450 Ph.D. students.

Small classes and professors with advanced industry experience allow you to make your education as personal as you want. The student–faculty ratio is 13:1; and of the 416 full-time faculty members, 98 percent hold the highest degree possible in their fields.

After they graduate, NJIT students land the best jobs -- well paying jobs that allow for creativity, career advancement and personal growth. And studying in Newark, the largest city in New Jersey, helps them get those jobs.

Northern New Jersey, where Newark is located, has the nation's highest concentration of pharmaceutical, high-tech, biotech and medical-device companies.

Newark is also a short subway ride away from New York City, the financial capital of the world. NYC is a world center for business, real estate, media and publishing. And since Newark is so close to NYC, and NJIT is a top ranked university, recruiters from all these fields come to NJIT to recruit students.

Newark is also a great city for science and technology students. For its size, New Jersey has the country's highest number of engineers, scientists and technology workers who work for major firms and start-up companies alike. These firms constantly need new employees, and NJIT students have an edge; the firms are filled with NJIT alumni, who help NJIT graduates find jobs.

New Jersey Institute of Technology

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) is a public research university in Newark, New Jersey. NJIT offers 100 degree programs in 27 undergraduate majors and 30 graduate specialties.

NJIT is New Jersey's science and technology university. The school opened as the Newark Technical School in 1881 with 88 students. As of 2005, there are 8,058 students of which 1,400 live in one of the school's four dormitories. It is now home to the Newark College of Engineering, New Jersey School of Architecture, School of Management, Albert Dorman Honors College, College of Science and Liberal Arts, and College of Computing Sciences. The current president, Robert A. Altenkirch, was inaugurated on May 2, 2003. He succeeded Saul K. Fenster, who was named the university’s sixth president in 1978.

NJIT is one of few Universities to offer extensive courses in Video Game development.

The school offers the only NAAB-accredited bachelor's degree in architecture in New Jersey.

It offers combined programs in medicine with the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey and St. George's University in Grenada.

The university is known foremost for its research capabilities ranging from the fields of stem cell research to nanotechnology to solar physics and polymer science. The school also specializes in the research of smart gun technology, and has trademarked the term Virtual Classroom and was the first to obtain then retain Yahoo!'s "Most Wired University" award.

On December 20, 2006, New Jersey Governor Jon Corzine signed a bill to allocate $50 million towards the development of an NJIT-led stem cell research facility in Newark, NJ.

NJIT is a participating Internet2 member and held its first Internet2 Day in 2005.

History

The New Jersey Institute of Technology that we know today has a rich history with its beginnings developing from the industrial age. Like many of the port cities around the world, the Newark, New Jersey, of the late 19th century was a thriving industrial center. Its factories churned out thread, metals, paints and leather goods. In Newark, Thomas Edison set the stage at his Ward Street factory for his later astounding achievements, and Edison rival Edward Weston established the first factory in the United States for commercial production of dynamo electric machines.
