Graduate School and Research

Research is fundamental to everything we do here at The Graduate School. We’re proud to be designated a Carnegie R2 research institution, a recognition that means more research activity is happening here than in many universities across the country. That research is being done not just by faculty but by many of our graduate students (both Masters and PhD), ensuring that everyone learns the kind of hands-on skills that will give them a leg up on the competition. By bringing together faculty at the top of their fields, students with a passion for learning, and state-of-the-art resources and facilities, we’ve created a dynamic hub of innovation and discovery in New Jersey that’s making a major impact around the world.
