World-Class Education
Rutgers University in Newark: Education is more than reading a textbook
Students have opportunities to conduct research alongside professors who are international leaders in their fields.
Many of our college classes are small. Our student to teacher ratio is 13:1, so students get individual attention.
Our students leverage what they learn in the classroom to lead student clubs, network with employers and alumni, conduct laboratory and field research, obtain internships, and secure full-time employment upon graduation.
It all adds up to a top college experience – but don’t take our word for it.
92% of our college graduates recommend attending Rutgers University in Newark to their peers!
