College of Science and Liberal Arts Award Winners Announced — Office of the Dean, CSLA
This announcement brings my warmest appreciation to the NJIT community and wishes for your health and well being during this challenging time. I am pleased to announce the winners of the 2020 College of Science & Liberal Arts (CSLA) Awards. Regrettably, this year's CSLA Awards Ceremony is postponed due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation; we hope to hold a recognition ceremony during the upcoming fall semester at which time awards will be presented to recipients. Information about the fall ceremony will be sent out within the forthcoming months, so please be on the lookout for that. The accomplishments of our colleagues, students, and alumni are truly remarkable. Please join me in congratulating this year’s award winners. -- Kevin D. Belfield, Dean CSLA
