NJIT Athletics recognized the contributions and accomplishments of over 350 student-athletes on its 19 varsity teams for the 2020-21 season at the Annual Athletics Awards Ceremony on Wednesday, May 5, 2021 on campus inside NJIT's Wellness and Events Center.

The Athletic Sports Awards Ceremony was a fun-filled afternoon designed to honor the NJIT Highlander teams for all of their hard work on and off the field during the 2020-21 athletic year.

A new NJIT-led project is making learning about the abstract world of organic chemistry a fresher, interactive experience that students can now easily explore in hi-res action through their digital devices. Already, it’s created quite a reaction among young chemists and their teachers around the world. 

The new web project, called Visualize Organic Chemistry (VOC), was launched in March by students in the research group of NJIT Assistant Professor of Chemistry Pier Alexandre Champagne.

A computer science major at New Jersey Institute of Technology has earned the top prize in a statewide collegiate competition that judges pitches for innovative business ideas.

The student, Yashwee Kothari ’22, pitched a mobile application for tracking the symptoms of people recovering from traumatic brain injuries – an idea she has been developing since high school. 

A generous scholarship enabled Charu Arya to attend New Jersey Institute of Technology, and her professors helped solidify her career path. Indeed, both financial assistance and academic support fueled her success.

Arya ’21 reflected on that fruitful journey during NJIT’s annual Scholarship Brunch, sharing a pivotal moment during her sophomore year when she reconsidered her initial decision to study medicine. 

After a year layoff, one of NJIT’s standout annual research events returned to the campus community this month — more than 30 of the university’s top student-researchers took to their webcams to present their work for a virtual audience at the 2021 Dana Knox Research Showcase, "A Glimpse Into the Future.” 

New Jersey Institute of Technology is one of the nation’s best colleges for students seeking a superb education with great career preparation at an affordable price, according to The Princeton Review, an honor held since 2018. NJIT ranked No. 39 as a Best Value College and No. 10 for Best Career Placement among public colleges and universities.

New students often matriculate at NJIT with a handful of college credits, declaring themselves double majors or participating in joint bachelors-masters programs, but Metuchen's Samuel Carlos is raising the bar, having arrived in 2018 with an astonishing 103 college credits and an associate's degree earned in high school, promptly declaring a double major and then adding a third in 2019 because he didn't want to graduate too soon.
