Rutgers University-New Brunswick

Rutgers-New Brunswick is where New Jersey's state university took root in 1766. Rutgers is the eighth-oldest institution of higher learning in the United States and the only public university in New Jersey in the Association of American Universities (AAU), an organization composed of the most distinguished research institutions in North America. Students choose Rutgers-New Brunswick because it has all the advantages of a small school and all the resources of a leading research university, including ten schools offering more than 100 undergraduate majors and five residential campus communities. Rutgers-New Brunswick's central location between New York City and Philadelphia provides you with access to hundreds of employers and thousands of internships. In an hour by train or car you can find yourself applauding a Broadway performance, hiking or skiing mountain trails, exploring an art museum in Philadelphia, or soaking up the sun at the famous Jersey shore.
