The Department of Information Systems at NJIT turned seven in 2007. In that time we have accomplished a great deal, as reflected in these pages. We have several exciting events scheduled for this year. In October we are thowing a Festschrift celebrating the enduring influence of our most recent emeriti professors, Starr Roxanne Hiltz and Murray Turoff. It was easy to prepare a solid case for our October reaccreditation visit from ABET for our BAIS and BSIS degrees. In April we are sponsoring our third annual NJ Web Design Competition for high school students- the future foundation of our community. We do a lot of other outreach as well. In September we inaugurated a new studio classroom for innovative educational activities. We are proposing two new degree programs in collaboration with NJIT's School of Management to provide another opportunity in our portfolio of very exciting and flexible degrees. Faculty have received several prestigious grants over the past year and are continuing our tradition of being on the leading edge of innovation in several fields. Information Systems is a vibrant, invigorating and welcoming community.
Please browse our web site and get to know our world-renowned faculty, highly engaged students, programs and activities. Feel free to email us with questions you may have.
