Community Engagement
Newark, New Jersey, is more than the place where our students learn and study, or where our faculty and staff come to work every day; it is our neighborhood and our hometown. Our commitment to the people and institutions of greater Newark is rooted in more than a century of living and learning in our home city.
RU-N is a remarkably diverse, urban, public research university that is not just in Newark but of Newark—an anchor of our home city.
