Internationalizing the campus experience
Rutgers Global–Programs works closely with campuses, schools, and units to support faculty research and scholarship. We develop activities that internationalize the campus, enhancing the global competency of the Rutgers community. With a focus on strong relationships, we also facilitate international partnerships and delegations.
Rutgers Global, through the programs office, offers several different funding opportunities open to units across the university aimed at internationalizing the campus experience. In addition, we advance international research by providing assistance and immigration processing for incoming sponsored students and scholars, such as those who come to Rutgers through the Mandela Washington Fellowship.
Rutgers has hundreds of international MOUs (memoranda of understanding)—and Rutgers Global–Partnerships facilitate these agreements. These partnerships often lead to on-site visits from international delegations, and we can coordinate such visitor requests.
