New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) is a public research university in Newark, New Jersey, with a graduate-degree-granting satellite campus in Jersey City.[12] [13] Founded in 1881 with the support of local industrialists and inventors especially Edward Weston,[14] NJIT opened as Newark Technical School (NTS) in 1885 with 88 students.[a] [b] As of fall 2022 the university enrolls 12,332 students from 92 countries, about 2,500 of whom live on its main campus in Newark's University Heights district.[5][16]

NJIT is classified among the "R1: Doctoral Universities – Very high research activity".[20] It operates the Big Bear Solar Observatory, home of the Goode Solar Telescope; the Owens Valley Radio Observatory (both in California); and a suite of automated observatories across Antarctica, South America and the US.[21] [22]

It has participated in the McNair Scholars Program since 1999.[23][24] NJIT is a designated Asian American Native American Pacific Islander serving institution (AANAPISI) and a designated Hispanic-serving institution. As of May 2022, the school's founders, faculty and alumni include a Turing Award winner (2011), a Congressional Gold Medal winner (2015), a National Medal of Technology and Innovation recipient (2002), a Franklin Medal winner (1924), an astronaut (attended, transferred to USNA), 7 Fulbright scholars, 19 Goldwater Scholars and 27 NSF Graduate Research Fellowships.[25] NJIT sponsors 19 NCAA Division I sports teams, 11M and 8F.[26] Its core affiliation is with the America East Conference.
