NJIT YWCC Capstone Revenue and Competitors

Project-based Real World Learning Experience Capstone is a project-based learning experience where students work in multi-disciplinary teams to address a real world problem faced by a business, government agency or non-profit. The student teams work directly with a contact at a company to learn about the issue the company is trying to resolve and develop an actionable solution. Through the program students gain real-world work experience, problems solving skills and valuable team experience. The company mentor or sponsor meets with the students bi-weekly throughout the semester to monitor progress and answer questions. It’s a perfect way to use the eco-system of a research university, a cohort of bright undergraduate and graduate students to augment your resources and maintain a lead over your competition. Recruit Talent Capstone provides a direct line of talent and potential future employees for businesses. Company partners work directly with students providing a first-hand look at the work of students for consideration for future internship or post-graduation job opportunities. Coach and Mentor Students Project sponsors act as partners, mentors and coaches to students through weekly communications and bi-weekly in-class meetings. Since launching in 2002, NJIT students have completed more than 1,200 projects supporting more than 700 organizations. Academic Credit for Students Students successfully completing the Capstone program receive 3 academic credits.
