Why NJIT?

I chose NJIT because of its impressive reputation and rigorous coursework. NJIT prepares you to work in a professional environment, and it is hard to find school’s that put a significant emphasis on those topics.

Why Business?

I chose to study Business because of NJIT’s School of Management. The School of Management is a highly credited business school that has continually grown. The professor’s have real life experiences which relate to the course work and enhances your learning practice.

What do you like best at NJIT?

The thing I like best at NJIT is its Career Development Services (CDS). Not only does NJIT give you excellent in class studies, but through CDS you receive aid and guidance toward obtaining internships and Co-ops. The internship I received was through CDS and has given me greater knowledge and experience toward my fields of study.
