As the oldest, largest, and top-ranked university in the New Jersey/ New York metropolitan area, Rutgers is acclaimed for the excellent achievements of our people and for their contributions to society in pursuit of education, research, and health care. The university has locations in Camden, Newark, and New Brunswick along with major academic and clinical health spaces that span across the state. Each campus location offers its own distinct personality: Rutgers University-Camden is known for its close-knit community just across the river from downtown Philadelphia; Rutgers University-Newark is among the most ethnically diverse campuses in the nation and offers a dynamic urban atmosphere; and Rutgers University-New Brunswick is the Big Ten campus, offering a more "classic" campus atmosphere with a busy urban core that gives way to bucolic green spaces. With over 150 undergraduate majors, 400+ graduate programs, and 300+ research centers, Rutgers is a university of opportunity. Rutgers is constantly breaking new ground and generating new knowledge, supporting pioneering work in stem cells, climate change, DNA analysis, and more. Our locations close to New York City and Philadelphia provide students with access to hundreds of employers, thousands of internships, and the best art and entertainment. From rich academic offerings to a vibrant community of diverse individuals, Rutgers ignites purpose and is the ultimate beginning of a remarkable future.
