In 2021, the Dieter Weissenrieder '76 and Family Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering Laboratory was inaugurated at NJIT's Newark College of Engineering. It occupies 1,400 square feet of newly renovated space in NJIT’s Mechanical Engineering Center, overlooking the Makerspace. The newly created engineering lab gives students hands-on expertise in machining, process automation, process control inspection and quality control. At its center is a small-scale automated manufacturing system capable of converting raw materials into finished and inspected parts.
