Students from Albert Dorman Honors College’s courses – Introduction to Research Writing, Introduction to Research Methods, Introduction to Entrepreneurship, Science, Technology and Urban Transformation and Introduction to Sustainability Studies – presented their semester's research during the Honors Interdisciplinary Research Forum, with topics ranging from increasing civic engagement in Newark to a comparative analysis of the role of governmental incentives on accelerated electric vehicle adoption. 

Sixth-generation mobile networks arriving in the 2030s will connect your smart devices by dozens or even hundreds of times faster than the data rates of today, and those networks might employ important research from New Jersey Institute of Technology and the State University of New York - Buffalo to make their promises into reality.

More than 40,000 students attend classes in Newark, some in schools built before 1920. Repairing and maintaining those structures are massive undertakings. A project led by NJIT’s Center for Building Knowledge to create digital twins of every building managed by the Newark Board of Education (BOE) is providing school administrators with the data needed to make more strategic decisions about the highest priority capital renovations. 

New Jersey Institute of Technology Ph.D. student Günel Nabiyeva has co-authored a new study in the International Journal of Cosmetic Science that demonstrates how engineering tools can accurately predict how sunscreens “feel” on the skin — bridging scientific measurement and human perception.

The collaboration, which began through a National Science Foundation (NSF) INTERN supplement and continued under NJIT’s Experiential Learning Opportunity Program (ELOP), connects academic research with industrial product development at Colgate-Palmolive.

As this month’s string of powerful X-class solar flares sparked brilliant aurorae that lit up skies across an unusually wide swath of the globe — from northern Europe to Florida — researchers at NJIT’s Center for Solar-Terrestrial Research (CSTR) captured a less visible, but crucial, record of the storm’s impact on Earth’s upper atmosphere.

World War II has been revisited countless times in books and films. But NJIT professor Laura Montanari set out on a unique songwriting project to bring to life overlooked voices in the Allied fight against fascism — heroines of Italy’s underground resistance.

Her new collection of “archival songs”— blending original music with interviews from female partisans (partigiane) who resisted the Nazi occupation and Fascist Italian Social Republic in the 1940s — has gained international recognition.

New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) and the New Jersey Innovation Institute (NJII) today announced the launch of PureTrace Labs, a startup created to bring NJIT-developed technology for rapid detection of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) to market.

The company marks the first official launch from NJII’s Venture Studio, supported by an investment of up to $1 million.
