Located in the NYC Metro area, NJIT is an R-1 classified research polytechnic university, #1 in student upward economic mobility and a top 50 Public University nationally. The Hillier College of Architecture and Design (HCAD) began in 1973 as the New Jersey School of Architecture, and remains the only accredited undergraduate 5 year B.Arch degree program in the state. HCAD also offers a four year BS Arch Degree and in the School of Art + Design offers undergraduate degrees in Interior Design, Industrial Design and Digital Design. These programs extend a multi-disciplinary curriculum emphasizing collaborative studios and coursework.
As a comprehensive and technology-enabled design school, Hillier College is the first architecture school in the nation to introduce a digital platform for all studio work. Our faculty expertise extends from nanotechnology in our Material Dynamics Lab to regional applications in our Urban Design program, and includes robotics, parametric design, and interactive design.
Proximity to New York City provides access to unmatched cultural and intellectual resources for our students and a great talent pool of design faculty. Newark, our host city, is undergoing a significant revitalization, both downtown and in its neighborhoods. The Newark Design Collaborative helps inform and facilitate this transformation.
We are an intellectual and creative community. Design draws on a broad array of disciplines and practices. At the Hillier College of Architecture and Design, we enable students to chart their own paths in the world of design. We invite you to share with us this voyage in experimentation and discovery.
