Please read NJIT's Social Media Policy: http://www5.njit.edu/stratcomm/services/socialmedia-policy.php The New Jersey Institute of Technology that we know today has a rich history with its beginnings developing from the industrial age. Newark in the late 19th century was a thriving industrial center. Its factories churned out thread, metals, paints and leather goods. In Newark, Thomas Edison set the stage at his Ward Street factory for his later astounding achievements, and Edison rival Edward Weston established the first factory in the United States for commercial production of dynamo electric machines. On March 24, 1880, the Essex County Assemblyman in the state legislature introduced “An Act to Provide for the Establishment of Schools of Industrial Education.” The Newark Board of Trade sponsored the bill. The Act established three schools of industrial education: one in Newark, one in Trenton, and one in Hoboken. The first Board of Trustees met on July 1, 1884. The Newark Technical School opened on Monday, February 9, 1885 with 88 students who attended despite a terrible snowstorm. The first classes were held in a rented building at 21 West Park Street. Soon the facility became inadequate to house an expanding student body. To meet the needs of the growing school, a second fundraiser—the institution’s first capital campaign—was launched to support the construction of a dedicated building for Newark Technical School. In 1886, under the leadership of the school’s dynamic first director, Dr. Charles A. Colton, the cornerstone was laid at the intersection of High Street and Summit Place for the three-story building later to be named Weston Hall in honor of the institution’s early benefactor. A laboratory building, later to be called Colton Hall, was added to the campus in 1913. Daniel Hodgdon served as the director of Newark Technical School from 1918 to 1920. Under Dr. Allan R. Cullimore, who led the institution from 1920 to 1949, the modest Newark Technical School was transformed into the robust Newark College of Engineering. Campbell Hall was erected in 1925. During the lean years of the Depression and World War II, only the former Newark Orphan Asylum, now Eberhardt Hall, was purchased and renovated by the college. The post-war period was one of enormous activity during which President Cullimore—like today’s post-Cold War university presidents—challenged the college to turn “war-time thinking into peace-time thinking.” In 1946, about 75 percent of the freshman class had served in the armed forces. Robert W. Van Houten was acting president of NJIT from 1947 until 1950 when the board of trustees named him president. Cullimore Hall was built in 1958 and two years later the old Weston Hall was razed and replaced with the current seven-story structure. Doctoral level programs were introduced and six years later, in 1966, an 18-acre, four-building expansion was completed. William Hazell succeeded Dr. Van Houten as president of NJIT in 1970. In 1973, with the addition of the New Jersey School of Architecture, the institution had evolved into a technological university, emphasizing a broad range of graduate and undergraduate degrees and dedication to significant research and public service. A stronger-than-ever Newark College of Engineering remained intact, but a new university name—New Jersey Institute of Technology—signified the institution’s expanded mission. A broadened mission called for the creation of a residential campus. The opening of NJIT's first dormitory, Redwood Hall, in 1979 began a period of steady growth that continues today. Under the leadership of Saul K. Fenster, who served as president of NJIT from 1978 to 2002, four new schools were established at the university: The College of Science and Liberal Arts in 1982; the School of Management in 1988; Albert Dorman Honors College in 1994; and the College of Computing Sciences in 2001. During the administration of Robert A. Altenkirch, New Jersey School of Architecture was reconstituted as the College of Architecture and Design in 2008.

In 2015, our Latina/o Studies Working Group seeks to contribute to efforts that have been in the making since the 1960s. The takeover of Conklin Hall did not leave us the legacy of a department of Latina/o Studies; but we have Dr. Jason Cortés, who is now directing American Studies and co-directing the Latina/o Studies Workng Group. Although Olga Jiménez de Wagenheim retired in the 1990s and the Puerto Rican Studies Minor became inactive, this year we will bring some of the fruits of Hilda Hidalgo and Maria Canino's activism and Olga's research to campus for the first time with the travelling exhibit on the "Remembering the 1974 Puerto Rican Rebellion," a mobilization directly responded to the killing of a Latino Newarker in Branch Brook Park. Today Rutgers Newark is HSI-eligible (an Hispanic Serving Institution, which means 25% of our students are Hispanic) and thanks to Arcelio's leadership, Rutgers University Newark belongs to the Hipanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU), and many units and leaders on campus acknowledge the need for Rutgers University-Newark to become a leading site for Latina/o Studies research, teaching and programming.

The Department of Biomedical Engineering was established in 2001 to draw on the university's expertise in such areas as microelectromechanical systems and tissue engineering, in support of New Jersey's burgeoning biotechnology industry. In just a few years, the department has become one of the largest in the Newark College of Engineering. In 2003, the Department of Biomedical Engineering moved into specially designed space in newly-built Fenster Hall. Equipped with dedicated laboratories and classrooms the faculty pioneered a studio approach to education emphasizing hands-on, experiment-based learning. The department has built a considerable research program with support from such agencies as the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, Essilor, Inc., and the Iowa Corn Promotion Board. Research areas of concentration include stem cell applications in tissue regeneration, vision and neural engineering, bioMEMS, motion analysis and rehabilitation engineering, biomaterials and biopolymers. The Bachelor of Science program in biomedical engineering received official accreditation by the Accreditation Commission of ABET, Inc. in August 2008 . Accreditation is retroactive to 2005.
The Rutgers School of Criminal Justice was established at Rutgers University in 1972 by the New Jersey State Legislature. The legislature recognized the need for a formal program of study dedicated to preparing students to be leaders in research, teaching and public policy to better address criminal justice issues. More than three decades later, the impact and influence of the school continues to grow. In 2000, the Rutgers School of Criminal Justice moved into the Center for Law and Justice, one of the most beautiful and technologically equipped academic buildings in the country. The building’s architectural features, including its brick structure, clock tower and steelwork speak to Newark’s historical roots as one of the nation’s leading business and industrial centers. The Center for Law and Justice also is home to Rutgers School of Law-Newark, the Center for Global Change and Governance, and the Rutgers-Newark Provost’s Office. This environment encourages interdisciplinary collaboration on many levels.
