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.
