Welcome to Rutgers University Global Programs

At Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, global engagement has been the hallmark for nearly 150 years. Today, Rutgers faculty and students are at work on every continent, and more than 3,200 students and scholars from around the world come to Rutgers each year to learn and to share their knowledge. In almost every field, Rutgers’ international collaborations are breaking new ground as extraordinary technological advances create an unprecedented ability to transcend national borders.

Rutgers is dedicated to infusing in our teaching, research, and outreach activities a perspective that includes all of the world’s people. Our international research centers, study abroad programs, degree programs, language departments, communications technologies, and conferences are among the many ways our faculty and students reach out to the world.

Rutgers University Global Programs, established in 1996, is dedicated to nurturing and facilitating a global perspective throughout the university, in New Jersey, in the United States, and abroad.
