Newark College of Engineering

Newark College of Engineering is not an author but the historic engineering school at the heart of the New Jersey Institute of Technology. Its roots go back to Newark Technical School, which opened in 1885 to train students for the needs of a fast-industrializing region.

Under president Allan R. Cullimore in the early 20th century, the school expanded and was transformed into the Newark College of Engineering. NJIT's own history notes that when the institution adopted the university name New Jersey Institute of Technology, the Newark College of Engineering remained as a stronger-than-ever core college within the larger university.

Today, the name carries more than a century of public-service and technical education history. If this appeared in your catalog as an author entry, it is best understood as an institution or subject heading rather than a person.
