Canvas is NJIT's Learning Management System (LMS). Every course automatically has a Canvas page to support learning in any mode, and to deliver classes that are fully online. Using Canvas allows instructors to share course materials, collect assignments, post grades, and interact with students through discussion forums and other digital learning tools. Step-by-step guides are available for both instructors and students in the respective Canvas Orientation courses.

Accessing the Canvas environment requires a fully provisioned UCID. If you are a newly admitted student or a newly hired faculty member, you must officially claim your UCID before attempting to log in. Please note that after claiming your UCID, you may be informed of a specified time duration for your credentials to fully synchronize with Canvas.

If you have already claimed your account, waited the required synchronization time, and are verifying that you are using the correct username format, but still cannot log in, you may need to reset your password.

Canvas requires the latest versions of Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, or Apple Safari. Using outdated or unsupported browsers will result in diminished functionality and file submission errors.
