One Community, Five Campuses

Think of Rutgers–New Brunswick, with more than 37,000 students, as something like a lively and vibrant city. And just as the best small cities have a fun mix of neighborhoods, each with its own identity—some quiet and bucolic, others with a bustling, urban ambience—so do the five campuses of Rutgers–New Brunswick. At each campus, you’ll find everything you need—student centers, dining options, residence halls, computer labs, classrooms, libraries, student lounges, and lots more.
 

2,681 acres, 21 libraries, 658 buildings, 6 student centers

A hub of innovation, science, and technology, the Busch Campus is where you’ll find the School of Engineering and the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy, as well as the roaring crowds at High Point Solutions Stadium and the Olympic-size pool of the Werblin Recreation Center. It’s also home to the Visitor Center, a starting point for campus tours, and to many of the university’s high-tech and biotech research centers.

With a new Dining Commons and newly upgraded and expanded student center, the Livingston Campus is a community with a forward-looking vision. The campus is home to the nation’s largest campus solar farm, Rutgers Business School: Newark and New Brunswick, and the Louis Brown Athletic Center (the “RAC”), where Rutgers cheers its basketball teams.

The heart of the university, the College Avenue Campus is where it all began for Rutgers, with historic and architectural milestones dating back to the American Revolution and the early days of the nation. Based here are the School of Arts and Sciences—the largest school at Rutgers—other schools and departments, and the Rutgers Student Center. A quick walk takes you to downtown New Brunswick, with its shops, eateries—and urban vibe.

With its Georgian Colonial architecture and sprawling lawns, the Douglass Campus is where you’ll find Douglass Residential College, the university’s women’s residential college. The campus is home to the Eagleton Institute of Politics and to the social and intellectual ferment of the Global Village, a group of living-learning communities, such as the East Asian House and the Human Rights House.

Home to the School of Environmental and Biological Sciences and the Institute of Marine and Coastal Sciences, the G.H. Cook Campus is a bucolic setting for quiet contemplation and innovative research, with high-tech labs, a working organic farm, open green spaces, and athletic fields. A pastoral pond (known as “Passion Puddle”) is shared with the adjacent Douglass Campus.
