英文版介绍
Stevens Institute of Technology is atechnological university located on a 55 acre (223,000 m ) campusin Hoboken, New Jersey, USA, founded in 1870 on the basis of an1868 bequest from Edwin A. Stevens. It is the fourth-oldesttechnological university in the United States, and is known for itsrigorous engineering, science, and technological managementcurricula.
The institute has produced leadingengineers, scientists, and managers in industry and government. Twomembers of the Stevens community, as alumni or faculty, have beenawarded the Nobel Prize: Frederick Reines (class of 1939), inPhysics, and Irving Langmuir (Chemistry faculty 1906-1909), inchemistry。
The Stevens campus encompasses CastlePoint, the highest point in Hoboken. Historic Sybil\'s Cave boresinto the side of Castle Point, and below and to the east of theuniversity is Frank Sinatra Park, Castle Point Park, and CastlePoint Skate Park. The tallest building in the institute is theWesley J. Howe Center, occupying the site of the former \"StevensCastle\" on Castle Point.
Among the prominent research centers ofStevens is the Davidson Laboratory, Wireless Network SecurityCenter, Keck Geotechnical Laboratory, Plasma Physics Laboratory,Nicoll Environmental Laboratory, Electron Microscopy Laboratory,and Center for Mass Spectrometry.
In a survey in the Princeton Review\'sBest 366 Colleges, Stevens came in 2nd place in \"Professors Get LowMarks\".
The current president of StevensInstitute of Technology is Harold J. Ravech .
1、Educationenvironment
Stevens is composed of four academic schools: the Charles V.Schaefer, Jr. School of Engineering, the Arthur E. ImperatoreSchool of Sciences and Arts, the Wesley J. Howe School ofTechnology Management and the newly-created School of Systems andEnterprises.
Stevens offers the Bachelor ofEngineering (B.E.) degree in electrical, chemical, biomedical,materials, civil, mechanical, systems, engineering management,computer, and ocean engineering. A total of 145-155 credits isrequired for the B.E. degree. Stevens is one of the few schools inthe United States that has retained a broad-based engineeringcurriculum, requiring many courses in engineering disciplinesoutside of one\'s major area of concentration as well as anextensive science foundation. This is a rigorous curricula. Stevensstudents credit the high, diverse course load with providing themthe ability to solve problems outside their immediate fields ofstudy, and to effectively attack interdisciplinary problems thatcut across many different, but related, areas of engineering andscience. This has made Stevens engineers extraordinarilyprofessionally competent in solving problems compared with manyothers whose training was focused in a narrow specialty. TheStevens curriculum is noted for its large number of required corecourses that are optional in many other schools.
All of the engineering curricula, withthe exception of Biomedical Engineering, are accredited by theAccreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET). Thenewest discipline, Biomedical Engineering, is currently finishingthe required approval period and accreditation is expected in 2006.The Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree is offered in chemistry,business technology management, computer science,mathematics, physics, materials science, and chemicalbiology/biochemistry. At the graduate level, Stevens offers theMaster of Engineering (M.Eng.), Master of Technology Management(M.T.M.), Master of Science (M.S.), Master of BusinessAdministration (M.B.A.), Engineer (E.E., M.E., Comp.E., C.E., andCh.E.), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degrees.
Stevens offers an accelerated ChemicalBiology/Pre-Medical program with the University of Medicine andDentistry of New Jersey. In this program, students can enter themedical school after the third year at Stevens. Stevens confers theB.S. degree after the first year of medical school, with the M.D.degree awarded after the fourth year. There is also a prelawprogram with New York Law School, and a \"3-2\" (5 year) dual-degreeprogram with New York University, in which students earn a B.S. inscience from NYU, in addition to the B.Eng. from Stevens. StevensInstitute of Technology International offers two graduate programsin the Dominican Republic a Master of Science in InformationSystems and a Master of Engineering Manufacturing Technology andProject Management
The Wesley J. Howe School of TechnologyManagement differs substantially from most traditional businessschools in that it emphasizes quantitative methods of management,particularly those unique to the management oftechnologically-based organizations. The Stevens undergraduateprogram emphasizes mathematical business models, applications ofhard science to the concept and marketing of products, financialengineering (stochastic calculus, probability, and statistics asdescriptors of the dynamic behavior of financial markets) and thecase study method of business analysis. The capstone project in theBusiness curriculum is the design of a technology-based business,with the accompanying business plan, operations research, marketanalysis, financial prospectus, and risk analysis. Several of thecapstone projects done in the business school have actually beenrealized in the marketplace as new companies. Stevens has remaineda \"small school\" because it allows smaller classes for improvedefficiency and better student-faculty interaction.
Current focus in Stevens is integrationof business and technology, with technology coming first. The aimis to produce alumni possessing both the skills to create and tolead and manage technological projects. This achieved through highstudent involvement in research activities and collaboration withfaculty helping bring any project from concept to a real commercialproduct.
Another important trait of Stevens isits interdisciplinary philosophy students are not forced to onlytake courses from their particular department, it is possible toget involved into different fields of science and technology oreven graduate with an interdisciplinary major. The quality ofindividual study plan is assured through faculty advisersrepresenting the respective departments.

The Honor System gives the student theprivilege to take an examination without proctoring by a professor.Students are required to sign the Honor System pledge attestingthat they have not \"asked for, given, nor received aid during thisexamination\" in exchange for that privilege. The pledge reads, \"Ipledge my honor that I have abided by the Stevens Honor System.\" Atthe time of its incorporation, students taking examinations werewatched closely by a proctor, and asking not to be proctored was arevolutionary idea. Proctoring presumes students will not do thehonorable thing, whereas the Honor System places great trust in thestudents. Stevens treats its students as future professionals, whowill maintain the honor and integrity of their professions. In thecase of infractions of the Honor System, a jury of the student\'speers hears the case in a trial and decides the outcome.
Stevens was the first technologicaluniversity in the United States with a humanitiesdepartment.Twenty-four credit hours of humanities (history,literature, social science, philosophy, and art/music) are requiredof all undergraduates.
2、Researchenvironment
Davidson Laboratory: One of the largestis the Davidson Laboratory, which is the oldest non-militaryhydrodynamics, naval architecture, and ocean engineering researchlaboratory in the United States. The Davidson Laboratory housesseveral towing tanks, which are equipped with computer-controlledmachinery to generate waves with precisely determined amplitude andspectral characteristics. Trolleys mounted on rotating and lineararms carry scale models of the ships or vehicles to be tested whilesensors record the vehicle motion and the data analyzed oncomputers. The stability, control, and seaworthinesscharacteristics of the vessel can thus be precisely characterized.Davidson Lab has designed and tested numerous ships, boats, yachts,submarines, and amphibious vehicles. Notable projects of Davidsoninclude seakeeping and buoyancy tests of the Apollo flotationballoons (computer simulations showed the balloons to adequatelysupport the spacecraft when it parachuted into the ocean, however,Davidson Lab proved by experiment that the original design wouldhave caused the spacecraft to overturn and sink. The design wasthus corrected and retested), design and test of the majority ofthe America\'s Cup racing yachts including several Cup winners, manyNavy ships, and amphibious aircraft. The Davidson Laboratory is nowpart of the Center for Maritime Systems, which conducts research inthe fields of coastal oceanography and underwater acoustics, aswell as the traditional marine craft hydrodynamics studies. Thehigh-speed linear towing tank facility was recently renovated, andwas officially rededicated in December 2006, as the highlight of amodel testing conference hosted at Stevens. Facility upgradesincluded widening and deepening the tank to increasecross-sectional area, the addition of underwater viewing ports forphotography and measurements, and improvements to the numerouselectronic systems used for control, monitoring, and dataacquisition. The laboratory facilities include a comprehensivemachine shop (the largest on the Stevens campus) and anelectronics/instrumentation shop. These shops provide an in-housecapacity to design and fabricate various specialized items ofapparatus which may be required for experimental studies, but forwhich there is no readily available commercial source.
3、Technogenesis
Stevens employs Technogenesis, which isa unique system of scholarship and practical courses, to create anoverall learning environment designed to encourage innovation withthe ultimate goal of establishing new technology-based businesses.Technogenesis is a trademarked word that is now owned by Stevensbut was first used in 1993 by Technogenesis, Inc. (of Mineola, NY). Technogenesis is a word that has no true meaning, but is used toexplain everything at Stevens.
4、Facts
The average SAT score of Stevens is1350 and 58% of the undergraduates come from the top 10% of theirhigh school classes with an average high school GPA of 3.8. Theaverage SAT score of the students in the Accelerated Pre-Medicalprogram is 1430.
The engineering curricula require 149to 155 credit hours of study. Stevens has retained the broad-basedengineering curriculum that its founders considered the cornerstoneof a complete engineer. The large number of courses, many inengineering disciplines outside of one\'s direct concentration,account for the large total number of credits. Students in the dualdegree program with NYU take 200 credits in five years. Manystudents find this workload very challenging.
