YWCC offers bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral degrees in multiple areas of artificial intelligence, computer science, cybersecurity and privacy, data science, information systems, and information technology.
YWCC resides on one of the most computing-intensive campuses in the world, helping NJIT educate one of the largest groups of students in the nation in the applications of new technologies as learning tools. The College enrolls more than 4,000 students (close to 35% of NJIT’s student body) and graduates more than 1,000 computing professionals every year. As such, we are the largest computing program in the region, and the most significant generator of tech talent in the New York metro area.
Not coincidentally, New Jersey is one of the leading states for computing and high technology businesses. Thirty of the nation's fastest-growing technology companies are based in the state, and New Jersey ranks eighth for venture capital investment— $3.5 billion—in information technology and software. Additionally, New Jersey offers the second-highest wages in the nation for technology workers. YWCC graduates frequently land creatively satisfying and intellectually challenging jobs at major companies like IBM, Mercedes-Benz and Pfizer.
