Design Showcase

2023 marks the 50th Anniversary of the New Jersey School of Architecture and the 15th Anniversary of the School of Art+Design.

Design Showcase is the signature fundraising event for the Hillier College of Architecture and Design at NJIT. This event features the work by alumni and top Hillier College students of Architecture, Digital Design, Industrial Design, and Interior Design.

With alumni and sponsor support, the event gives Hillier College students an invaluable experience and an opportunity to network with alumni and industry professionals representing a variety of firms, businesses, agencies, entrepreneurs, designers, and innovators. 

Since its inception, Design Showcase has grown in profile and size, becoming the primary source of support for the Hillier College students. Funds raised over the past 16 years have supported the enhancement of the fabrication facilities including 3D print labs, a motion capture studio, a digital fabrication lab featuring a robotic arm and VR technology to enrich interactive design. It remains an important source of funding for educational and experiential improvements at the Hillier College of Architecture and Design.

The Hillier College of Architecture and Design continues to embrace technology enabled design and is committed to a broad intellectual foundation preparing our graduates not only as young professionals but also as engaged citizens.

We are grateful for our alumni and industry sponsors who represent small and large architectural firms, government agencies, builders, real estate developers, entrepreneurs, designers, and innovators supporting our hard working and talented students.
