Advantages at Rutgers

For students who wish to prepare for one of the many exciting pharmaceutical careers, Rutgers offers many advantages. The Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy is located on a modern, attractive suburban campus, surrounded by the university's golf course, the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, and the university's major science departments. Student housing, a campus student center, and the Library of Science and Medicine are within walking distance of the school. While the campus is a traditional college campus and away from the hustle and bustle of any downtown business district, the nearby central New Jersey metropolitan region offers a wide array of practice-oriented educational opportunities in retail pharmacies, hospitals, and the pharmaceutical industry. The school's professional experiential programs take full advantage of these opportunities, including industrial pharmacy sites that provide a unique experience in the research laboratories of the nation's leading drug manufacturers.

All activities, both academic and extracurricular, of the larger university are available to pharmacy students, including extensive academic offerings in the basic sciences, humanities, and social sciences. While at the Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy, students affiliate with a residential campus in the New Brunswick area (Busch, College Avenue, Cook, Douglass, or Livingston) for housing and other student services.

As a state university, Rutgers offers tuition rates that are particularly affordable to New Jersey residents, while maintaining reasonable tuition rates for out-of-state students. Scholarships and other forms of financial aid also are available. For further information, see the Tuition and Fees and Financial Aid links on the front page of this catalog.

The pharmacy faculty also offers graduate programs for students wishing to earn a master of science or doctor of philosophy degree in chemical biology, pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry, pharmaceutics and industrial pharmacy, pharmacology, or toxicology. These programs are described in the catalog of the Graduate School-New Brunswick.
