Overview
Stevens Institute of Technology is a premier, private research university offering innovative academic programs in business, humanities, the arts, engineering and science. Unique courses of study offer you the chance to explore emerging disciplines and test your most original ideas in a cutting-edge learning environment. Just fifteen minutes from Manhattan, we also offer exceptional opportunities for internships, undergraduate research and cooperative education. We believe research and technology hold the keys to the solutions of the pressing challenges in fields as diverse as finance, defense, medicine, urban planning and national infrastructure.
Stevens educates more than 6,800 undergraduate and graduate students annually, employing more than 380 faculty in four academic divisions offering more than 30 majors.
At Stevens Institute of Technology, the impossible becomes possible. We take the spark of an idea and make it real.
Our students work together in interdisciplinary teams to create new products, solutions and services. Our faculty produce groundbreaking research that enables better planning and policy; improves healthcare and treatment; builds our understanding of critical questions; shares useful insight; and makes life safer, more secure and more comfortable. Our partners in industry work with us to transform business, create the future and tackle the big challenges.
On a green hilltop campus, just the right size and right across the river from New York City, we teach the next generations of leaders and thinkers — the dreamers and doers — to explore with their minds but also to follow their hearts. We teach them to innovate, anticipate, collaborate. We prepare them for careers and further education, prepare them to arrive and thrive in the real world. And they do thrive, spectacularly.
A Stevens education is unique. We challenge and prepare students in ways they never knew possible. We teach how, through collaboration, the greatest gains are realized. By the time graduates have passed through our doors, they have experienced teamwork, project management, hustle and hope. And they have been prepared to achieve the futures they have always envisioned.
The Stevens student experience takes in much more than classroom time and research in the lab. The university offers team and intramural athletics; more than 100 student clubs; a regular program of stage, music and other arts; and plenty of other opportunities for personal growth, creation of community and new friendship.
Being part of the Stevens community is more than about earning a degree. It’s about forming life-long friendships, learning to care for others through service, balancing classroom time with physical activity, exploring your curiosities and pursuing your passions by joining a club, learning from and appreciating different points of view, and most of all – knowing that an entire community has your back. A comprehensive network of support services is always on hand to help our students succeed and realize their full potential.
Stevens is a vibrant community home to more than 100 student clubs and organizations from student government, fraternity and sorority life, community service and more!
