Starting fall 2019, New Jersey Institute of Technology’s (NJIT) Ying Wu College of Computing (YWCC) will offer part-time and full-time graduate-level programs in data science at a location just steps from the Exchange Place PATH station in the waterfront district of Jersey City.

McKenna Awards and presented the 2019 Kevin J. McKenna Leadership Award to President Bloom. McKenna was a longtime NRBP counsel and executive committee member who died suddenly in 2011.

On any given day, they might be dressing a wound. Or they might be seeing that computers, phones and other personal property are not left unattended.
