Lactation Guidelines
In coordination with the Offices of 校园 健康 and Wellness Services and Human 资源, NJIT provides 泌乳 spaces on campus to those who need to express milk, as well as guidelines to support this experience. To review the 泌乳 guidelines and the location of the 泌乳 room/pods on campus, please visit the Lactation Guidelines website.
Lactation Breaks for Students
Under Title IX, students are protected against harassment and discrimination based on sex which includes nursing individuals. Because 泌乳 is a condition related to an individual’s sex and pregnancy/parental status, students have rights. If a student must miss a portion of class or lab time to nurse or express milk, they are encouraged to contact the Title IX Coordinator to discuss reasonable accommodation requests with instructors.
