NJIT has earned a No. 33 ranking on The Princeton Review's just-released list saluting the top 50 undergraduate schools for game design for 2018.

In February, more than 300 educators, superintendents, technology advisors and engaged citizens from districts throughout New Jersey convened at NJIT to promote digital education at the 2018 Future Ready Schools New Jersey (FRS-NJ) North Regional Certification Summit.

Five NJIT students —  Ivan Mitevski, Kiera Nissen, Omar Qari, Priya Rajbabu and Michael Vitti — have been named 2018 Governor’s STEM Scholars, an honor that is providing them with unique opportunities to learn from and network with New Jersey STEM professionals, research organizations, academic institutions and state policymakers. They join their fellow scholars from universities, high schools and academies throughout New Jersey in attending STEM conferences and field trips, and in participating in a team-based research project.

An entire team of ambitious graduate students from Ying Wu College of Computing (YWCC) received full-time job offers from New York City-headquartered IT and business consultancy company Net@Work, in recognition of the innovative technology solutions they developed last fall semester as part of a Capstone project sponsored by the company.

New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) is one of the nation's best colleges for students seeking a superb education with great career preparation and at an affordable price according to The Princeton Review®.

Interning at PSE&G has proven both professionally and financially fruitful for NJIT senior Aidan McGourty. Not only did his experience segue into a co-op for the 2017-2018 academic year — and garner him accolades from his supervisor — it also contributed to him winning a $500 NJIT scholarship in a Career Development Services (CDS) contest.

“It forced me to rethink the possibility of starting my own company,” Hu recalled.

Ah, the struggles of commuter life.

You know, the time-consuming process of gassing up the car, hitting the road and battling rush-hour traffic, only to reach your destination and have to hunt for parking.

We’ve all been there.

A recent study revealed that motorists waste about 100 hours a year looking for a parking space, which accounts for one-third of city traffic. What’s more, the excess vehicle miles traveled in search of parking has a widespread impact on the environment and increases driver frustration.

With the help of NJIT’s Career Development Services (CDS), some ambitious students have been able to elevate their academic careers through internships at big-name companies like Johnson & Johnson, JP Morgan & Chase and Cisco Systems.

CDS reported a sharp increase in the number of co-op and internship placements facilitated through the career center in 2017.

Nearly 900 students gained invaluable work experience, earning over $6.8 million in wages.

U.S. News & World Report ranks New Jersey Institute of Technology’s (NJIT) graduate computer information technology programs 17th among the “Best Online Programs” offered by universities throughout the country — up 21 slots since last year. NJIT also offers other online programs that were mentioned by the report, such as the MBA and graduate programs in engineering.
