MISSION STATEMENT
The 2008-2009 Stevens Institute of Technology Student Handbook
Since its founding in 1870, Stevens
Institute of Technology has been educating and inspiring
students to acquire the knowledge needed to lead in the
creation, application and management of technology, and
to excel in solving problems in any profession.
The undergraduate curriculum is built on a multi-disciplinary core of business,
engineering, the sciences, and the liberal arts, stressing the fundamental concepts,
techniques and attitudes that underlie different branches of technology. This
exposes students to a broad knowledge of several disciplines while giving them
the opportunity to focus on a special interest, as well as adhere to a long-standing
honor system. The graduate programs educate professionals to advance in industries
increasingly influenced by technology and enable scholars to explore the frontiers
of their disciplines. Research at Stevens strengthens education, and a scholarly
and supportive community of faculty, students, staff, alumni, trustees and other
friends fulfills the mission.
An extension of this collaboration is the concept of "Technogenesis®",
the educational frontier wherein faculty, students and colleagues in industry
jointly nurture the process of conception, design, and marketplace realization
of new technologies. The implementation of Technogenesis® enables the Institute
to enter a new direction in the twenty-first century and to add a third dimension
to the structure of higher education.
