Three of NJIT's online graduate programs placed among the top 100 in this year's U.S. News & World Report rankings of American universities, and in the top three for New Jersey institutions.

The ACM has announced NJIT Distinguished Professor David Bader in its new class of Fellows.

Bader received the honor along with 70 peers in the computing industry, representing just 1% of Association for Computing Machinery membership.

"The contributions of the 2021 Fellows run the gamut of the computing field — including cloud database systems, deep learning acceleration, high performance computing, robotics, and theoretical computer science," ACM President Gabriele Kotsis stated.

Salam Daher, assistant professor of informatics, this week received the Society for Simulation in Healthcare's Technology Innovator of the Year award in recognition of four projects addressing patient simulation.

Over the last few years, Ying Wu College of Computing (YWCC) has been involved in a number of commercial software development projects, typically outsourced from corporations. By employing the skills of its international students, many of whom have prior experience in software development, the College enhances the student experience with real-world opportunities for advancement, innovation and societal change.

Aiming to propel discoveries made in university labs into everyday life, the new I-Corps Northeast Hub launched this week following its announcement last summer, as applications are now open for its first researcher training program.

The 4-week program, in which researchers confront the challenges of creating successful startups and entrepreneurial ventures based on scientific and technological discoveries, kicks off Feb. 28 and runs through March 23 online.

Logan Reyes was named by his parents after James “Logan” Howlett, otherwise known by his codename Wolverine. Perhaps Marvel’s superhero is an apt comparison for a young man who states that he “wakes up every day striving to make an impact.” 

The Board of Trustees of New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) is proud to announce the appointment of Dr. Teik C. Lim as NJIT’s ninth president following a national search and a unanimous vote of the Board on January 5, 2022. President-elect Lim, who also will be appointed as a Distinguished Professor of Mechanical Engineering, will begin his NJIT tenure on July 1, 2022.

Bhargav Samineni loves applied math, and there are few better ways to see math in action than working on scientific computing problems with a mentor from a chip company like AMD.

Samineni interned last summer at the University of California/Los Angeles - Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics, under guidance from an AMD scientific computing engineer in the application of neural networks to acoustic wave propagation, as an exercise in machine learning and a demonstration of the company's graphics processing units.

Guiling (Grace) Wang, professor and associate dean for research in Ying Wu College of Computing, was recently named an IEEE Fellow, one of the electronic technology industry's highest honors.

She is the first woman to earn the honor among several male recipients at NJIT and only the second current honoree in the computing college. Most recipients are based in Newark College of Engineering, given the IEEE's focus on electrical engineering.

Four professors across the globe are collaborating to solve real-world problems in cybersecurity, health, and various areas of social science through a project called Streaming Graph Algorithms under the new Institute for Future Technologies, a partnership between New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) and Ben-Gurion of the Negev University (BGU).
