As students at one of the schools of Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, engineering students share a rich campus life with students in many other disciplines. Intellectual stimulation abounds in a wide variety of interdisciplinary lectures and seminars, and extracurricular activities include an equally wide range of concerts and athletic and social events. Every student has access to distinguished professors in many fields. In addition, the undergraduate engineering student studies in an atmosphere of scholarly activity enriched by the closely related programs of graduate instruction and research.

Instruction in engineering is centered in Piscataway (adjacent to New Brunswick) on the Busch Campus. Housing and all other student services are provided to each engineering student through one of the five residential campuses in the New Brunswick area (Busch, College Avenue, Cook, Douglass, or Livingston) with which that student affiliates. See the Current Students website for more information on campus life.
