Other Academic Programs

Rutgers SC&I Communication and Journalism & Media Studies majors can apply for the MCM program in their junior or senior year as part of the 5 Year Program (Dual Degree Option) BA/MCM program option. More information is available at https://comminfo.rutgers.edu/.

More information is available at https://comminfo.rutgers.edu/undergraduate-programs/information-technology-and-informatics-major.
Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) 4+3 Program
The Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) 4+3 Program is a seven-year program that combines four (4) years of coursework in a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) in Exercise Science from Rutgers University - New Brunswick with three (+3) years of graduate school at the Rutgers School of Health Professions Doctor of Physical Therapy Program - Newark Campus. This program provides First Year students who are admitted to either the School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) or School of Environmental and Biological Sciences (SEBS) the opportunity to begin preparing for a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) Degree from the moment they start their college education. More information is available at https://rudpt43.rutgers.edu/.
Bachelor of Science / Entry Level-Master of Science Clinical Nutrition Program
The School of Arts and Sciences (SAS) and the School of Health Professions (SHP) offer a joint admissions program in Exercise Science (Bachelor of Science, BS, awarded by SAS) followed by a Master of Science in Clinical Nutrition Entry Level (EL-MSCN, awarded by SPH), termed the BS / EL-MSCN program. Students admitted to the program will graduate with the BS in Exercise Science from SAS and then be admitted to a 42 credit, 16 month EL-MSCN full-time program administered by SPH. Both degrees should be completed within six years.  More details about the program can be found here https://shp.rutgers.edu/nutritional-sciences/entry-level-master-of-science-clinical-nutrition/
Five-Year, Dual-Degree Program MA/BA in Religion
Qualified undergraduate students at Rutgers can apply to the 4+1 B.A./M.A. program in Religion in their junior year. This program makes it possible to complete the M.A., which is normally a two-year program, in only one year after the B.A. Students considering applying as well as those who are already in the 4+1 program are strongly advised to consult with the Director of Graduate Studies about how to work out the details of their coursework. As a general rule, a course cannot be counted toward both the B.A. and M.A. degrees. This means that students in the 4+1 program must plan their coursework for the B.A. and M.A. separately. During the senior year, students in the 4+1 program will begin taking graduate courses toward the M.A. degree, but they must make sure that they will have satisfied all their undergraduate requirements by the end of the senior year so that they can graduate with the B.A. degree.  More information is available at the SAS Department of Religion.
Joint Programs (Economics 4 + 1 Masters Program)
The Certificate Programs in economics are a natural path to a number of 4+1 programs within Rutgers University, whereby well-prepared students can receive some credit towards a master's degree during their senior year, and then complete a master's degree with one more year of coursework. The Certificate in Economic Theory and the Certificate in Quantitative Economics are particularly well-suited to this purpose, as they include more emphasis on mathematics and statistics as part of the program. More information is available at https://economics.rutgers.edu/academics/undergraduate/certificate-in-economics.
Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology (MSSLP)
The Master of Science in Speech-Language Pathology (MSSLP), to be located in Newark on the Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences campus, is a 66-credit, entry-level program that will prepare students to prevent, evaluate, diagnose, and treat speech, language communication, and swallowing disorders. 
This program will be completed over five consecutive semesters (two years); for more information contact SLP@shp.rutgers.edu.  More details about the program can be found here: https://shp.rutgers.edu/rehabilitation-movement-sciences/master-of-science-in-speech-language-pathology/
School of Management and Labor Relations joint Bachelor's and Master's Five-Year Program
The 5 Year Joint Bachelor's and Master¿s Program in Labor Studies offers high-achieving Rutgers SAS undergraduates a path toward an Master's degree in Labor Studies that is cost effective in terms of time and tuition. The 5 year MLER Program provides students with the right to waive up to three Labor and Employment Relations SAS approved courses, (9 credits), and if a high achieving senior student, up to 2 more MLER graduate credits can be taken and applied toward the MLER Master's degree as long as they are above and beyond their needed undergraduate credits.
