Business majors, along with anyone interested in the theory and technology of organizational leadership, may attend the Northeast Decision Sciences Institute Annual Conference hosted by NJIT's Martin Tuchman School of Management in April 2022.

The event formed in 1972 and moves around the Northeast, but has never been in Newark until now, explained T. Homer Bonitsis, associate professor of finance in the Tuchman school and event program chair.

New Jersey Institute of Technology is among the Best Global Universities identified by U.S. News and World Report in its eighth edition of the annual ranking.

Highlanders who want to start a business will soon have access to a $75,000 seed investment from the university's new Venture Fund as part of a 10-year, $6.75 million commitment funded by the NJIT endowment.

With students back in classrooms this fall, educators and superintendents across New Jersey were once again welcomed back to NJIT’s campus to network and discuss fresh ways they can enrich hands-on STEM learning in their schools at the university’s fifth annual STEM School Leadership Forum — “Bringing Cutting-Edge STEM into Your Classrooms.”

Members of NJIT's new Center for Artificial Intelligence Research will look to expand knowledge of the theory, data and applications of their field, which director Grace Wang said is quickly evolving from experimental to practical status.

Minorities and underserved residents in Newark will soon have unique opportunities to establish high-tech businesses, based on three new programs from the VentureLink arm of NJIT's New Jersey Innovation Institute.

ROI-NJ recognized two alumni of New Jersey Institute of Technology as “difference makers” in its list of 2021 ROI Influencers: People of Color.

The honorees, Elisa Charters and Marjorie Perry, remain connected to NJIT via board service. Charters is a member of the university’s Board of Trustees, Hispanic Latinx Leadership Council and the Advisory Board for its Martin Tuchman School of Management, while Perry chairs the university's Board of Overseers.

New Jersey Institute of Technology yesterday officially recommissioned the university's tutoring laboratory as the Norma J.

NJIT Assistant Professor Steve Taylor, of Millburn, is dissatisfied with how insurance companies deal with natural disasters and is preparing to offer an alternative.

Taylor witnessed extreme flooding from Hurricane Ida early this month in Millburn, where he resides. He also saw that many of his neighbors and local small business owners had their claims denied, despite being loyal customers of their insurance companies, as they lacked flood policies. Some had been advised by insurance agents that it wasn't a flood zone, based on data and maps that became obsolete decades ago.

New Jersey Institute of Technology ranked No. 1 in New Jersey and 14th nationally among public schools for early-career salaries, with young alumni bringing home just under $125,000 on average against just $7,600 in average debt, according to Forbes 2021 Top Colleges ranking.

Statewide, only private schools with higher tuition ranked above NJIT for early career salaries. In overall rankings, NJIT is No. 89 among public colleges nationwide, Forbes stated.
