Innovative University Provides Opportunities for Global Access

August 5, 2014

 

Stevens Institute of Technology is a premier, private research university situated in Hoboken, New Jersey, overlooking the Manhattan skyline. Founded in 1870, technological innovation has been the hallmark and legacy of Stevens’ education and research programs for more than 140 years.

 

Within the university’s three schools and one college, more than 6,100 undergraduate and graduate students collaborate with more than 350 faculty members in an interdisciplinary, student-centric, entrepreneurial environment to advance the frontiers of science and leverage technology to confront global challenges.

 

Stevens is home to three national research centers of excellence, as well as joint research programs focused on critical industries such as healthcare, finance, defense, coastal sustainability and STEM education. The university is consistently ranked among the nation’s best for return on investment for students, career services programs, and mid-career salaries of alumni.

 

“Our goal at Stevens is to have all students graduate with a resume that showcases their outstanding education and their valuable work experiences.”
- S. Rachouh.  

 

Stevens is in the midst of implementing a 10-year strategic plan, The Future. Ours to Create., designed to further extend the Stevens legacy to create a forward-looking and far-reaching institution with global impact.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Stevens’ world-class reputation attracts scholars from across the globe. “Our international community includes scholars who represent more than sixty countries, bringing diverse traditions to our multicultural campus,” highlighted Ms. Susan Rachouh, Director, Office of International Programs.

 

Stevens offers the best of both small-town and big-city living. The university’s stunning, park-like, residential campus provides a vibrant yet safe environment close to restaurants, parks, cafes, and nightlife. Just ten minutes by train, ferry, or bus to downtown New York City, the waterfront campus boasts a view of the famous Manhattan skyline and offers immediate access to all the cultural, business, and entertainment attractions of this media and financial capital of the world. Northern New Jersey is home to a significant Portuguese-speaking community, including Newark’s famous Ironbound neighborhood, which boasts an array of Portuguese and Brazilian restaurants, retail services, and cultural attractions.  

 

Stevens’ small size and supportive community encourage close interaction with faculty and peers, who regularly work together to tackle the challenges of today’s increasingly globalized society. “Our goal at Stevens is to have all students graduate with a resume that showcases their outstanding education and their valuable work experiences,” explained Ms. Rachouh.  

 

A dedicated career development office supports students in achieving their career goals through career exploration programs, experiential education opportunities, and individualized guidance from professional career advisors. Diverse, stimulating summer internships help students gain "real-life" work experience in a professional setting, and the Stevens Cooperative Education Program allows students to explore career interests and apply classroom knowledge to real-world industry challenges. A degree from Stevens is your next step to career success.
