The vision began in 2017 with Dr. Deek’s visit toEgypt in 2017, although the educational model is different today. There has been a lot of goodwork on this, through the Provost and the Deans, Mr. Christ, Mr. Bishof, and Mr. McLeod inworking with Tatweer-Misr to finalize an agreement to open a branch campus. The FacultySenate has convened an ad hoc committee chaired by Dr. Ian Gatley to review the plan, andask for an endorsement of the Faculty Senate.

10. Report from NJII: Vice President Nynens gave a report to the Board on NJII, which wasformed to build on the assets of NJIT. NJII is a non-profit corporation, while the HighlanderFactory, a subsidiary, is 100% for-profit. NJII’s 2021 goals are to create clear valuepropositions, drive internal excellence in operations and enhance financial performance. Hediscussed the six divisions and their purposes. These include Healthcare, Professional andCorporate Education, Entrepreneurship, Defense and Homeland Security, Biopharma, andData and Technology. The six departments include: Accounting and Finance, Legal,Marketing and Business Development, Information Technology, Human Resources andOperations. The materials outlined the achievements towards the above goals. NJII has 600students enrolled in Hacker U, which they are expanding and are currently training all internsat Prudential, as well as working much closer with corporations. The Defense & HomelandSecurity division is working on body-worn cameras, and work out of Picatinny Arsenal. TheBiopharma Division has generated enormous interest, and they are considering setting it up asfor-profit, while NJII will continue to keep an equity share. Their capacity is fully booked asof Monday. Mr. Nynens reviewed the work of the supporting divisions, which can be absorbedinto these companies. He is extremely proud of the team who worked long hours to get thisdone. At Venture Link, they are at 84% capacity. They have maintained strict policies interms of COVID safety during this time. They also worked to enhance financial performance,securing a major PPP loan, although it may not be received this year. Their goal is “climbinghigher together”, working with an enormously diverse team. Chair Cohen asked about the

three top wins. Mr. Nynens replied that these would be (1) healthcare grants, working closely with the Department of Health and adding to the team, while delivering on milestones and engaging in public service efforts such as homelessness contact tracing (2) the Biopharma division, with tremendous help from Mr. Christ’s team, and working their way through regulatory approvals, with 40% of NJII’s employees, and (3) transparency and working with NJIT. The value lies in $22 million of Department of Health funding; next year they anticipate $35 million in funding. This rolls in a part of NJIT’s overall strength in terms of R-1 funding.

11. Report of FY 21 Fundraising Progress to Date: Vice President Alexo gave a report onfundraising as of May 1st, referencing the materials at p. 85 of the Board materials. The monthof May was record-setting, with $9.3 million in new gifts and pledges, putting us over our goalof $18 million this year.

We are very pleased with this success,and while there are still other goals, we are ahead in all categories.

12. Monthly Financial Status Report as of April 30th, 2021: Treasurer Bishof reported that thefinancial status is positive, and we will end FY 21 with $5.2 million in surplus, which will bebuilt in to the 2021 budget.

13. Report of Clery Crime Data: Vice President Christ explained that we are changing the formatthat we are presenting our Clery crime statistics to encompass a larger reporting period, tomore accurately reflect the overall crime rate that was reduced during the height of COVIDand the reduced campus population.

On June 1, 2021, the Attorney General’s office awarded NJIT a grant for $85,596 for eligible acquisition, installation, operation, and maintenance costs associated with 42 body worn cameras. The grant award package, transmitted to NJIT on July 8, 2021, requires a resolution of the Board of Trustees in order for NJIT to accept the grant.

The United States Justice Department Office of Community Oriented Policing Services stated in a 2014 report that law enforcement agencies are using body-worn cameras in various ways: to improve evidence collection, to strengthen officer performance and accountability, to enhance agency transparency, to document encounters between police and the public, and to investigate and resolve complaints and officer- involved incidents.

The NJIT police department supports body worn camera use for these purposes and has used body worn cameras since 2016. This grant will upgrade our cameras to the latest technology, including facial recognition, and migrate the significant video/data storage to a cloud based system.

Implication: • Funds from the grant proceeds will allow the upgrade of body worn cameras for the NJIT

police.• NJIT has no matching obligation on the $$85,596 grant.• Without grant funds, upgrade of these cameras will be deferred due to budget constraints.

Recommendation: Authorize the Administration, through Senior Vice President, Andrew P. Christ, to receive, execute, and administer the grant, including any amendments that do not increase obligations to NJIT.

State Funding Meeting at NJIT with Secretary Brian Bridges

Secretary of Higher Education

June 15, 2021

Preamble

New Jersey Institute of Technology is New Jersey’s polytechnic university.

• NJIT’s curriculum is over 80% STEM, which costs 60-100% more to deliver

than other academic programs, a differential that NJIT cannot sustain without

significantly increasing the burden on students and parents.

• NJIT educates more than 1/3 of New Jersey’s engineers, and 60% of the African

American and Hispanic engineers who graduate from New Jersey colleges and

universities.

• NJIT graduates have 3-4 job offers upon graduation, and earn midcareer

annual salaries between $8,000 and $37,000 greater than their peers from New

Jersey’s other public colleges and universities.

• If New Jersey does not better support NJIT’s STEM education, students from

low-income families lose the opportunities to pursue careers that offer the greatest

upward economic mobility.

• NJIT’s polytechnic education is high skill, high demand, high salary.

• Funding NJIT’s STEM education is an equity issue.

Newark, NJ 07102-1982973.596.3102

For New Jersey to prosper, our institutions of higher education must prepare a

workforce that can thrive within and lead an economy driven by technological

innovation. Our research universities must accelerate and deliver scientific

breakthroughs that improve the quality of life and spur economic growth. As our state's

public polytechnic university, NJIT has been highly successful in achieving each of those

goals. NJIT prepares students to become leaders in the technology dependent

economy of the 21st century, and we are one of only 131 universities nationwide

rated an "R1" research university by the Carnegie Classification®, which

indicates the highest level of research activity.

NJIT is a launching pad for its students, because we prepare them to excel in the

fields and jobs that are in high demand and that are at the core of what is

unquestionably a technology economy. We educate approximately one-third of New

Jersey's engineers and scientists, and our students have an average of nearly

three job offers prior to graduation. Of particular note, NJIT is ranked No. 1

nationally by Forbes for the upward economic mobility of its lowest-income

students. Because of the significant demand for NJIT's graduates, our university has

continued to grow its diverse enrollment, faculty, facilities, and research. In addition to

preparing the workforce needed by our state's most critical industries, NJIT conducts

more than $160 million in research activity each year (see below a listing of New Jersey

public higher education research expenditures). The research produced by NJIT

annually is practical or applied in nature, solving real-world problems in areas that

include health

129


Newark, NJ 07102-1982973.596.3102

care and medical devices, civil infrastructure, advanced manufacturing, cybersecurity,

transportation, nanotechnology, clean energy, clean water, resilient design, national

defense, financial services, materials science, and many other fields. In response to the

Covid-19 pandemic, we recently received two National Science Foundation grants

related to COVID-19 research. The first was a RAPID Grant that will enhance contact

tracing and predict the environmental spread of the virus. The second was a grant to

develop next-generation functional carbon nanotube technology (fCNT) for

manufacturing scalable membranes for water purification to produce virus-free medical

grade water. The fCNT technology additionally is aimed at the development of

adsorbents for air purification and decontamination of PPE to prevent the spread of the

virus.

Newark, NJ 07102-1982973.596.3102

NJIT also is a catalyst for economic growth, with an annual economic impact on

the State of New Jersey that exceeds $2.8 billion. Our New Jersey Innovation Institute

(NJII), VentureLink, and Makerspace at NJIT provide direct linkages to industry and

foster partnerships that lead to new products, business solutions, and the application of

shared resources and expertise toward solving complex problems. A recent example of this

work is the launch of Biocentriq, one of NJII's most promising ventures. Biocentriq is

bringing industry, technology, developers, regulatory agencies, and academia

together to address manufacturing challenges in cell and gene therapy and

regenerative medicine. We are partnering with New Jersey companies to develop

processes, conduct clinical production trials, and train employees in this growth and

life-saving sector.

NJIT's role in preparing STEM professionals from underrepresented populations is

particularly critical to New Jersey's future. Each year, the United States has millions more

available STEM jobs than it has skilled workers to fill them. It's clear that we need to

expand the talent pipeline, and the best way to do that is to attract people who have not

been sufficiently tapped into--women and underrepresented minorities as well the very

large contingent of students who migrate out of New Jersey. NJIT is our state's greatest

source of STEM talent. More than 80% of our students are in STEM disciplines, and we

are a top 20 national university for producing Black and Hispanic engineers. Of note,

62% of all engineering degrees awarded to Black and Hispanic students by New Jersey

public institutions are awarded by NJIT. NJIT is a leader in supporting the Governor's and

the Office of the Secretary of Higher Education's, “The State of Innovation: Building a

Stronger and Fairer Economy in New Jersey,” and “Where Opportunity Meets Innovation, A

Student Centered Vision for New Jersey Higher Education,” respectively.

Our efforts to grow the talent pipeline start long before students enroll at our

university. NJIT's Center for Pre-College Programs works annually with approximately

4,300 pre-college students who are predominantly underrepresented females and

minorities from the greater Newark area. Of those students, more than 200 enroll as

undergraduates at NJIT each fall and pursue STEM professions. Today, we are working

331


Newark, NJ 07102-1982973.596.3102

aggressively in cooperation with Mayor Ras Baraka and the Newark Public Schools to double

the number of Newark students enrolled at NJIT. We recently launched the Newark Math

Success Initiative (MSI) to help meet that goal. MSI is designed to strengthen students'

math knowledge and skills as well as their college readiness. It also provides professional

development to a select number of mathematics teachers from designated Newark high

schools in order to build learning communities that support best practices in mathematics

instruction.

If New Jersey is to succeed in developing the diverse workforce necessary to support

an innovation economy, it must provide resources that support students in the STEM

disciplines as well as the colleges and universities that educate those students. The fact is it

costs much more for a college or university to offer STEM programs. Numerous studies,

including ones by the Center for STEM Education and Innovation as well as the National

Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), have documented that delivering STEM programs

costs 60% to 100% more than most other academic programs. The highest cost among

the STEM disciplines is engineering. These higher costs are driven by multiple factors,

including necessary infrastructure costs for labs and high-tech equipment as well as the

salaries required to attract faculty with lucrative job options in the private sector. Such

expenses are not avoidable.

The funding of STEM education has clear implications for our economic future.

Without consideration for the STEM cost factor, particularly for NJIT (the State's

80+% STEM university), New Jersey will not be able to produce the workforce

needed for an innovation economy to thrive, and STEM programs will become

increasingly out of the financial reach of students from low-income families. If we fail

to recognize the importance of investing in STEM education, our workforce will weaken,

our economy will suffer, and students from low-income families will lose significant

opportunities to pursue the careers that offer the greatest economic prosperity.

Below are several critical facts concerning the New Jersey Outcome Based

Allocation (OBA) Funding of NJIT.

● NJIT has the highest percentage of STEM degrees as a percentage of total degreesawarded, more than double the percentage awarded by the next highest institution.

Institution Number of STEMCompletions

Percent of TotalDegrees Awarded

NJIT 2,413 84%Rutgers New Brunswick 4,868 36%Rowan University 1,249 24%Rutgers Newark 729 19%Stockton University 445 19%TCNJ 360 17%Ramapo 235 15%William Paterson 336 14%Kean University 437 13%NJCU 222 13%Thomas Edison 304 13%Rutgers Camden 152 8%

● Demand for STEM educated professionals, particularly engineers, exceeds supply.○ NJIT students graduate with 2-3 job offers in-hand and average starting salaries

in excess of $65,000.● NJIT supplies the state with 62% of its Black and Hispanic engineers.● The New Jersey OBA model is calculated based on three metrics:

○ Total degrees awarded○ Underrepresented minority completions○ Pell Grant recipients enrolled

● Each institution receives a proportional share of the available funds equal to itspercentage of all institutions’ values for those metrics. Despite being the state’s publicpolytechnic R1 institution, NJIT receives less than several non-research andnon-doctoral institutions.

● According to a national study, the average cost to educate engineering students exceedsthe cost to educate undergraduate English majors by 67%. NJIT’s cost per credit hourfor an undergraduate biomedical engineering degree is four times the cost per credithour of a bachelor of arts in humanities. Additionally, NJIT’s enrollment in theundergraduate biomedical engineering program is 10 times higher than its enrollmentin a humanities program such as Communications and Media.

● As New Jersey’s unique public polytechnic university, NJIT has a very smallpercentage of students enrolled in the few inexpensive majors it offers.

● NJIT is the largest provider of financial aid (per capita) for its students among the publicuniversities.

● Some states, as part of their OBA or other state funding, provide additional resources tothe public polytechnic universities, for example:

○ Colorado weights STEM and health degrees at 1.5 times a non-STEM degree,with additional weights adjusted by the level of the degree. Colorado alsodesignated Specialty Education Programs (including Colorado School of Mines)that receive additional allocations outside of their performance-based funding;Colorado School of Mines receives an additional 10% of its based funding.

○ Oregon’s activity-based metric captures student credit hours completedadjusted by a cost-weighting based on field of study, student level, and degreelevel. Oregon’s outcome-based metric is based on degrees awarded weightedto reflect the cost weight of each program, with engineering having one ofthe highest cost weights. Therefore, Oregon Institute of Technology is

634


Newark, NJ 07102-1982973.596.3102

funded $18,554 per bachelor’s degree as compared to Oregon StateUniversity at $14,539.

○ New Mexico double-counts certain degrees awarded. That is, a degree awardedin a STEM or health discipline is counted twice, once in the category ofTotal Awards and again in the category of STEMH Awards. New Mexico Techreceives the most state revenue per FTE student as compared to all otherfour-year public institutions, excluding the University of Mexico Health ServiceCenter.

○ In general, most state OBAs include a funding adjustment or weighting of at least1.5 for degrees awarded in STEM and/or student credit hours completed inSTEM disciplines.

In Governor Murphy’s blueprint, “The State of Innovation: Building a Stronger and FairerEconomy in New Jersey,” the Governor writes that he is “…recommitting to STEM relatededucational programs…” He further states, “We will seek to attract, retain, and empowerentrepreneurs, STEM students, and STEM professionals to make New Jersey a magnet forventure capital investment and startups.”

Recommendation: New Jersey’s OBA should include the following components individually orin some combination:

● Include a metric to capture student credit hours completed and adjust funding based onthe instructional expenses of costly programs such as engineering.

● Account for the differential costs of degrees awarded by discipline and level(undergraduate, master’s, doctoral).

● Apply mission-specific factors to differentiate universities with specialized missionssuch as polytechnic institutions.

I am grateful for the opportunity to offer this testimony, and I would welcome anyengagement in further discussions. If New Jersey is to succeed in developing the workforce andresearch necessary to support a knowledge, innovation, and technology economy, we mustprovide resources that support students in the high demand STEM disciplines. Thank you foryour commitment to NJIT and New Jersey's public colleges and universities, as well as thestudents we serve.

Sincerely,

PresidentNew Jersey Institute of Technology

FY2021 Fundraising Report as of June 1, 2021 Executive Summary

Kenneth Alexo, Jr. Vice President, Development & Alumni Relations

• Overall Philanthropic Commitments: As noted at the June 10 Board of Trustees meeting, andas documented in the attached report, May 2021 was a historic month for fundraising at NJIT,with approximately $9.3 million in new gifts and pledges secured. This amount included thesingle-largest commitment in the university’s history, made by the Paul V. Profeta Foundationto support entrepreneurship and a new real estate center, as well as a $1 million grant from thePfeiffer Research Foundation, a $1 million bequest intention from an alumnus, and a $500k+pledge from a non-alum in Massachusetts who learned about NJIT initially through our ads onBloomberg Radio. Thanks to these and other commitments, the university surpassed its goal of$18 million with a full month left in FY21 – and also set a new record for fundraising in a singleyear. (The previous high was $18.38 million in FY16).

New gifts and pledges have continued to come in during June, and it is likely that the finalamount raised this fiscal year will exceed $19 million.

• Cash and Deferred: Outright cash gifts, pledge payments, gifts-in-kind, and irrevocableplanned gifts (e.g., charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts, etc.) received in FY21total a little more than $12 million for the current fiscal. This is roughly $800k ahead of lastyear at the same time, and represents 86% of our $14 million goal in this category.

We anticipate receiving at least another $750,000 in outright cash gifts and pledge paymentsduring June. Though short of our goal of $14 million, the final cash result is likely to be third-highest total in NJIT history.

Cash gifts and pledge payments to NJIT’s endowment – the overall value of which exceeded$158.25 million as of May 31, yet another record-high for the university – thus far total $4.5million.

• Annual Fund: Cash gifts to the annual fund and the Highlander Student Emergency Fund(HSEF) totaled $860,732, as of May 31, 2021. This amount represents 78% of our $1.1 milliongoal for FY21, and puts us about $183,000 ahead of last year at this time. The positivedifference is largely attributable to an increase in giving to the HSEF, for which $190,000 hasbeen raised since July 1, 2020.

• Alumni Participation Rates: As of May 31, 2021, both the overall and undergraduate-onlyalumni giving rates remain ahead of where we were at this time in FY20. The overall ratestands at 7.02% (compared to 6.46% last year), while the undergrad-only rate is 8.74% (two-thirds of a percentage point ahead of last year). We need roughly 900 alumni to make gifts inJune in order to achieve our goal for the overall participation rate (8.4%), and 650 alumni whoearned an undergraduate degree at NJIT to do so in order to reach our goal of 10.5% for theundergrad-only giving rate. (The latter number is the one that is used by U.S. News & WorldReport in its annual rankings of colleges and universities.)

Both of these numbers received a significant boost from the annual NJIT Day of Giving on May19 and from the various appeals, both print and digital, that were sent in April and May. We arecautiously optimistic that our undergrad-only alumni participation rate will exceed 10% for athird straight year.

MONTHLY FINANCIAL STATUS REPORT AS OF MAY 31, 2021

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Executive Summary provides the status of three important financial measures, the FY21 annual budget, cash balances, and investments and managed endowment.

1. FY21 Annual Board-approved Operating Budget, totaling $546.7M, is projected to have a year-end positive balance of approximately $5.2M, due to the following:

a. Tuition and fees remain above budget by +$5.0M or (+2.5%).b. Federal Programs will be below the budget by -$0.2M or (-1.0%). The additional $4.87M

reflects the FY21 usage of the HEERF II funding; that fund balance will be applied to theFY22 operating budget.

c. Indirect Cost Recovery, Unrestricted Interest Income and Other Revenues are projected tobe above budget by +$2.9M or (+9.7%)

d. Operating expenses are projected to end the year slightly below budget. We are planningyear-end transfers of approximately $2.5M to support: $750K to fund the 2015A step-coupon bond payment, $750K increase to student bad debt, $500K insurance reserve, and$500K to establish the NJIT Venture Fund.

e. The balance of HEERF II (CRSSA) funds totaling $4.87M and HEERF III (American RescuePlan Act) totaling $12.18M will be applied to the FY22 budget.

2. Cash balances – The University’s overall cash balance remains strong and totals $167.4Mcompared to $113.8M at May 31, 2020, an increase of $53.6M. Major reasons for the year-over-year change includes:

a. Reduced unrestricted expenses due to COVID-19b. Improved collection of grants receivablesc. Increase in unrestricted investment incomed. Timing of State appropriations and FICA reimbursemente. Insurance recoveryf. Decrease in student related revenue (tuition, fees and auxiliaries)g. One time Federal COVID-19 relief funds received

3. Investments and Managed Endowmenta. Managed Endowment – As of May 31, 2021, the portfolio market value totals $158.2M
