New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) has taken a significant step in its commitment to advancing artificial intelligence by establishing the Grace Hopper AI Research Institute (GHRI). The institute is a key component of NJIT's $10 million AI Initiative aimed at enhancing the university's capabilities in AI research and applications.
With artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT rapidly gaining traction among students and teachers alike, it’s no surprise the topic took center focus at NJIT’s 8th Annual STEM Forum for School Leaders, “Leading the Digital Transformation in Our Schools.”
Back-to-school buzz has returned to campus, and with it has come the latest wave of promising first-year students hailing from NJIT’s home city of Newark.
While many serious cases of COVID-19 are marked by respiratory distress and dangerously low blood oxygen levels — a condition referred to as hypoxia — the occurrence of “silent or happy hypoxia” affecting a subset of patients has puzzled experts since the pandemic's onset.
Here, we conclude a two-part series in which winners of the Outstanding Undergraduate Student Award at this year’s College of Science and Liberal Arts Awards share memorable experiences that highlighted their path to success at NJIT, while they also look ahead to plans after Commencement 2024.

Speaker after speaker reinforced what Kevin Belfield, dean of the College of Science and Liberal Arts at New Jersey Institute of Technology, said about the university’s Math Success Initiative: “It takes a village to put a program like this together.”
The speakers were at a campus ceremony celebrating the first students to experience MSI and graduate from NJIT: Okyere Boateng, Brian Herrera-Calle, Catherine Ochoa and Steff Pitti.
While excitement builds toward Commencement 2024, celebrations have already begun at NJIT’s College of Science and Liberal Arts (CSLA), which recently hosted its annual awards ceremony honoring distinguished alumni, faculty, students and staff.
Two NJIT undergrads and an alumnus have landed prestigious awards from the New Jersey Society of Professional Journalists (NJ-SPJ) for their outstanding contributions to the university’s student newspaper, The Vector.
NJIT Mathematics Professor Linda J. Cummings has been named a Fellow by the American Physical Society (APS) for her “outstanding contributions to physics.”
The APS Fellowship Program recognizes members who have made “exceptional contributions to the physics enterprise in physics research, important applications of physics, leadership in or service to physics, or significant contributions to physics education.”
With $1.94 million in federal funding, New Jersey Institute of Technology is launching a new program that will help Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander students navigate the academic, social and emotional challenges of transitioning into college.
The initiative, known as Improving AANAPI Student Outcomes Through Opportunities for Engagement, or ISOTOPE, begins next summer with academic and experiential orientation for 175 first-year AANAPI students.
