New Jersey Institute of Technology is partnering with Made Scientific, Inc. to help develop a new graduate bioprocessing elective within NJIT’s Master of Science program in Chemical and Materials Engineering. Launching in Spring 2027, the course is intended to prepare students for work in cell and gene therapy manufacturing while further strengthening NJIT’s ties to New Jersey’s growing biopharma sector.

As baseball fans celebrated Opening Day, one NJIT mathematician has already played out the entire 2026 season — on paper.Bruce Bukiet, a mathematics professor in NJIT's College of Science and Liberal Arts, has released his annual statistical projections for Major League Baseball's 162-game regular season, a tradition he has maintained since 1998. Nearly three decades in, the model remains as sharp as ever.

At NJIT’s inaugural Artificial Intelligence Exploration Day, the Hillier College of Architecture and Design (HCAD) helped show just how far artificial intelligence is reaching across the university. Through faculty presentations and student-led demonstrations, HCAD’s contributions examined AI from multiple vantage points — as physical infrastructure, as a design tool and as a creative medium.

Engineering has been called "the art of the possible," so it's no wonder that engineers of all types are investigating the possibilities offered by artificial intelligence.

Faculty and student research from NJIT’s Ying Wu College of Computing abounded at Artificial Intelligence Exploration Day, with faculty and dozens of students presenting their timely work.A trend was the emphasis on unique ways in which AI works — what we collectively understand, what we don’t and what remains mysterious.Senjuti Basu Roy, associate professor of computer science, along with her doctoral student Subhodeep Ghosh discussed two approaches to mitigating bias in large language models.

The world of commerce was thoroughly represented at New Jersey Institute of Technology’s inaugural Artificial Intelligence Exploration Day, where several faculty and students presented their AI-enabled research covering topics from entrepreneurship to human-machine collaboration to real estate titling.Presenters represented Martin Tuchman School of Management, the university’s traditionally tech-focused business school that evolved from coursework and student groups at NJIT predecessor Newark College of Engineering as early as the 1920s.

On the first night of classes at the Newark Technical School in 1881 — the institution that would become New Jersey Institute of Technology — 88 students walked through a snowstorm into a three-story building on West Park Street. The building was lit by 26 light bulbs, powered by electricity furnished for free by Edward Weston, one of the university's founders and the inventor of the first portable instruments capable of accurately measuring electrical current.

If you wanted to see how AI and research across the humanities and sciences are reshaping each other in real time, NJIT’s Jordan Hu College of Science and Liberal Arts (HCSLA) offered a front-row seat during the university’s first AI Exploration Day.The all-day AI takeover of campus highlighted the college’s diverse faculty and student research — covering everything from what the future holds for ethical AI design and robotics, to the latest AI-assisted efforts to alert Earth of eruptions on the Sun.

NJIT’s Andrew P. Christ, senior vice president for University Operations, has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the Commerce and Industry Association of New Jersey (CIANJ), effective immediately.

Students come to New Jersey Institute of Technology to learn — but they also have a chance to teach. A group of NJIT undergraduate and graduate students recently shared their STEM expertise with students in grades 3 to 5 from dozens of New Jersey schools, providing guidance as teams experimented with microcontroller technology to address issues affecting their communities. Their efforts culminated in a day of prototype and poster presentations at NJIT, held March 19 as part of the university's eSTEM Challenge.
