Facing a budget shortfall of $12.7 million, New Jersey City University will ax almost half of its undergraduate programs and cut its academic offerings over all by 37 percent.
The university will close 48 of its 101 undergraduate programs, 29 of its 67 master’s programs, and one of its three doctoral programs.It will also eliminate 24 minors and 10 certificate programs. The undergraduate programs affected include physics, environmental science, and early-childhood education.
As many as 30 tenured faculty members will lose their jobs at the end of the academic year, and up to 19 adjunct professors and staff members will not have their contracts renewed for the next academic year.
