Does $n^\varepsilon \gt n\log n$ for $\varepsilon \gt 1$?

I'm pretty sure I heard once the lecturer stating this, is that true?

This is equivalent to $n^{\varepsilon -1}>\log n$. Now, it's a basic result that $$\log n=o(n^{\alpha})\quad\text{for all}\enspace\alpha>0.$$ So it's true if $n$ is large enough.
