The Bloustein School, in cooperation with Rutgers-New Brunswick undergraduate colleges, has created a special course of study to allow exceptional students to earn a bachelor of arts or a bachelor of science degree, and a master of public policy degree in five years rather than the normal six. Students from the undergraduate colleges apply to the Bloustein School during their junior year. If admitted, they must complete all undergraduate requirements to receive their bachelor`s degree and take up to six graduate courses in public policy during their senior year. In the summer after their fourth year, students are enrolled in the Bloustein School and participate in the applied field experience. The subsequent fall, students enter as full-time graduate students to complete the M.P.P. degree over the next two terms.
