New Jersey Institute of Technology Reviews

"I am attending the Engineering Graduate program. The program is very poor. Courses were easy & assignment were light. Not much challenge. Almost all midterms & exams did not match the lecture slides or even the book! The midterms & exams made up a huge portion of your grade. Thank god some professors make is open books & notes. Otherwise, it's impossible to pass! Professors were very poor at teaching & hardly responsive. Some professors were decent at responding & teaching. They don't seem to care about students. Fortunately, mine was too easy (which is okay) but hardly learned anything. The courses were all recorded from 1-3 years ago & some professors gave good information or doesn't know how to teach. Grading also takes forever. For the high tuition cost, I could've went to a much better & higher ranking school. Also, it really comes down to your specialization to which professors & quality of courses/workload you get.Read Less"

"The following is my experience. I have been in the civil engineering field for 20 years. My partner and I recently started our own firm. We wanted to offer transportation engineering. I needed to learn how to prepare traffic impact studies, learn the software used in todays practice, and learn the methodology behind the art of transportation engineering. I took two of the ten courses. The first professor I needed to listen to the audio recordings more than once to understand what he was teaching. I had a really hard time understanding him through the accent. The second professor was more understandable. However, we were taking the final exam without knowing how we did on our last exam. I felt that the NJIT recruiters just told me want I wanted to hear. It was a very expensive waste of time for me.Read Less"

"Great school with enough teachers and resources to help you learn and achieve your degree. In the middle the city and everything is very easy to get to. Based on experience the teachers are there for you all the time in terms of need. Very diverse school. With many people from Asia and India."

"Its a nice college with good facilities. The on campus jobs scenario can be improved."

"NJIT offers 128 undergraduate and graduate degree programs in six specialized schools instructed by expert faculty, 98 percent of whom hold the highest degree in their field. Our academic programs are fully accredited by the appropriate accrediting boards, commissions and associations such as Middle States, ABET, and NAAB."

"I currently attend New Jersey Institute of Technology and I am working on my Master's degree in Business and Information Systems. The program is awesome, the professors are very in-depth and the course work is very intuitive. I highly recommend NJIT because the school is an amazing technology and science based school and the overall program is highly beneficial."

"nice, good academics and futute aspiration levels are more to improve urself."

"Good college for technology and engineering. Not much social life on campus."

"Good commuting school. Solid academics, good research and opportunities for networking with industry."

"Overall NJIT is very good school. Course availability during the summer section and online courses. They have excellent design classes and the professor are helpful where they sure you learn the course. I think they should have an FE course for the student engineers to help them pass the exam."

"I enjoyed my time there and Newark is getting safer by the year"

"OK school with decent engineering equipment. It has a first class clean room. The school location isn't great, the school's surroundings seem really dangerous."

"Great school with great value. Great job placement opportunities after collage and great network of peers."

"College was stressful and exciting all at the same time. I had many life experiences and met a lot of people that I still keep in touch with today. I wish I could go back and do it all over again."

"The teachers and great and the academic program provides several different options for specialization. They provide a great number of technology resources to students, however the campus is not safe. Every week there are serious police incidents."

"NJIT has become a very renown school, both academically and job competitiveness. NJIT graduates are held to higher standards then other engineering graduates because of the rigorous curriculum that is given to them. I am proud to say I have earned my degree from NJIT. The cons of this school however is that the graduate program is very expensive and lacks support from the financial aid department and state aid."

"Good university. However some professors need to be more qualified."

"Courses are well taught and professors are knowledgable. Program is a good value. Classwork is a good level of challenging and the workload is never too heavy. It would be nice to have more hands on access in the labs. The surrounding area of the school doesn't offer much in the immediate vicinity, but there are lots of options available by public transportation such as New York or Hoboken."

"The Pharmaceutical Engineering program at NJIT is excellent, especially since I already work in the industry, it takes everything I am learning at work and amplifies it so I can understand the background, the present practices and the future. The administration is extremely helpful and flexible for people working full time and doing school part time. I've worked hard but have love each minute so far!"

"Extraordinarily current curriculum, with a healthy dose of preparation for industry jobs. Not enough can be said about the benefits of having small class sizes. The professors are all highly dedicated, and every student has an opportunity to participate in research if they wish to."
