NJCU offers an excellent combination of liberal arts and a wide variety of major concentrations, from media arts and business to education, nursing and criminal justice. And our cooperative education partner list reads like a corporate “who’s who”!
You’ll find state-of-the-art technology, an exciting athletics program and professors, instructors and guest lecturers who truly care about your academic development.
And, because our students come from just about everywhere, you’ll have a unique and delightful opportunity to experience diverse cultures and ideas first-hand.
Although the University was founded in 1929 as a teacher training institution, its subsequent dynamic growth has been based on its energetic and creative response to public demands for new educational programs.
While the University's location in the urban center of the Northeast, just minutes from metropolitan New York City, affords students all the varied cultural and intellectual stimulation of a city, the campus has retained a quiet atmosphere for study, and a size conducive to a strong relationship between students and faculty which enhances learning.
More than twenty-five degree programs are offered; in addition, graduate programs and teacher certification programs are available. Computer science, business administration, criminal justice and health sciences are among some of the newer programs which have joined the traditional programs of study in the liberal arts.
New Jersey City University is the premier cooperative education college in the state of New Jersey. Students in all academic areas have the opportunity to work in salaried positions in related fields while studying for a degree.
The student body is drawn from a broad base of the population and includes the high school graduate pursuing a four-year degree sequence and non-traditional students. These include the older student, the part-time student, the working student-all of whom are able to avail themselves of flexible class scheduling. The student body, while drawn primarily from Northern New Jersey counties, also comes from the Virgin Islands and Hawaii, as well as forty foreign countries.
Through its Student Government Organization, the University offers comprehensive co-curricular activities and, through its Division of Athletics, a complete intramural and intercollegiate range of sports activities.
As a major community resource, the University is the focus of many community outreach services in multi-cultural counseling and advisement as well as in concerts, lectures and art exhibits for the general public.
