JPMorgan Chase announced today that it opened the application process for more than
100 new employees to join its team at the JPMorgan Chase Technology Center at
Syracuse University. The company is hiring candidates with information technology
experience at various levels.


"We are looking for qualified candidates to help JPMorgan Chase and Syracuse
University build a nationally distinct technology program in upstate New York," says
JPMorgan Chase Chief Administrative Officer Frank Bisignano. "This collaboration is
creating real jobs and delivering long-term value to JPMorgan Chase, Syracuse
University and the broader Syracuse community."


"We are excited that our collaboration with JPMorgan Chase is bringing new jobs and
new opportunity to Syracuse and Central New York," says SU Chancellor and
President Nancy Cantor. "Most critically, faculty and students from across our campus
will have the unique opportunity to work side-by-side with these new employees,

technology."


Employees will work on information technology and cyber security, risk analysis and

Bank employees will work at the JPMorgan Chase Technology Center on campus in

more employees to work at the Technology Center in the coming years.


SU students will have the opportunity to work side-by-side with the employees to gain
real-world experience in these fields. The
JPMorgan Chase-SU collaboration is
emblematic of Syracuse University's Scholarship in Action vision, which encourages
multi-sector collaborations that simultaneously enrich student and faculty scholarship
and education and address the critical issues facing the world.


JPMorgan Chase teamed up with SU in 2007 to create a one-of-a-kind educational
experience, transforming the way technologists are trained in the classroom while
bringing real business benefits to the bank. Unlike traditional university-industry
relationships, every aspect of the collaboration involves JPMorgan Chase and SU
representatives working side-by-side-from new academic programs to
groundbreaking research to technology development.
