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).

An NJIT business school professor is teaching graduate students how to apply data science to unique fields, starting with cutting-edge problems in nuclear physics.

Dantong Yu, associate professor of business data science, is co-principal investigator for a $250,000 grant derived from a federal $5.7 million project applying data science to understand what happens when particles collide at high velocity.

"Why not both?" is a social media meme, but it's also the proposed answer to a problem for the designers of virtual reality systems, who generally must rely on wireless signals that are reliable but not as fast as needed.

NJIT's Ying Wu College of Computing is matching top tech talent from its student ranks with companies needing to remain ahead of the curve in a competitive marketplace, in a new initiative called Early Access to Talent.

The pre-employment program offers companies the opportunity to cultivate a custom candidate pool according to their specific recruiting objectives among students pursuing an M.S. degree in any area of computer and information technology offered through the college.

The world is at Samuel Carlos’ fingertips. Since coming NJIT’s Albert Dorman Honors College out of high school with an associates degree in math and computer science, he’s interned at Amazon, Google, and Facebook. He’s since added a third major - history with a focus on the history of computer science and is now planning to study Mandarin and Southeast Asian technology and politics at National Taiwan University in the spring and summer of 2022. 

The Ying Wu College of Computing is pleased to announce the appointment of Dr. Julie Ancis, as interim chair of the department of Informatics, commencing December 1, 2021. Ancis joined the department this Fall from NJIT’s College of Science and Liberal Arts where she launched the new Cyberpsychology degree program.
