NJIT has good students and a good administration, but the college has lousy teaching and a misguided academic focus. After working in industry as a scientist for 10 years, I enrolled full-time in NJIT's Masters of Applied Mathematics program. The program is a 30-credit non-thesis masters degree desined for engineers or scientists. Despite the name of the program, most of the classes are highly theoretical -- I had two actually had two math classes where numbers were rarely used!

To make matters worse, the classes are large, the professors are indifferent about teaching, and the grading is pretty harsh. I feel as though I have learned very little real-world math, and the classes have been a painful series of exams and quizes with no useful feedback. I recommend that people avoid NJIT's graduate school.
