Innovation and Entrepreneurship

NJIT's strategic plan places a priority on interdisciplinary partnerships, innovation, research translation and technology entrepreneurship to strengthen the university's impact on society and to boost the economy. The new Center for Translational Research will help researchers, for example, convert their science and engineering discoveries into market-ready technologies that will improve quality of life in areas ranging from health care, to sustainable energy, to data privacy. The New Jersey Innovation Institute combines the resources of NJIT and its partners in industry and government to drive innovations that make a direct impact on the economy, health and welfare of New Jersey and the nation.
