U.S. News & World Report has released its 2023 rankings for the nation’s top graduate schools, with NJIT ranked among the best for graduate degree programs in engineering. The university slots in this year at No. 86 — up two positions from the prior year and 25 positions in the past eight years — and has been included on the distinguished list since 2003. The 2023 rankings mark the seventh consecutive year NJIT has appeared in the top 100.

Reflect for a moment on how you'd manage your terabyte-scale hard drive if the data were literally one million times bigger.

Then you'd be working with exabytes, which is the reality for supercomputer users at federal laboratories across the country, one of which is relying on Assistant Professor Qing Liu to mitigate their information storage problems by studying new methods of data reduction.

Ali Emadi is a Ph.D. candidate in the Helen and John C. Hartmann Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT).

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.

Her 20s have been a busy time for Dina Ayman: earning two degrees at NJIT in the same year, working at Intel and Microsoft, teaching at her alma mater and starting a consultancy dedicated to diversity and inclusion.

Along the way, she achieved her dream of working at the intersection of engineering and technology, and became a role model for women interested in STEM. And now Forbes is recognizing all that, by naming her to its 2022 list of 30 Under 30 in Enterprise Technology.
