The Rutgers Computer and Technology Law Journal is a student-run, law-review-style publication. It focuses on issues arising from the interaction of computers and other technologies with the law. Emphasis in the past has been placed on three major areas: legal aspects of the computer industry, legal ramifications of the use of computers and other special technologies, and the application of computers and new technologies to the legal profession. Other recent topics include intellectual property and electronic media, communications, and environmental regulation. Each issue includes recent developments and a complete bibliography. The journal is published semiannually and largely written by students. Staff members are selected primarily through a writing competition, but members also may join by writing an article suitable for publication in the journal.

It is the oldest legal periodical in the United States focusing exclusively on the field of women's rights law. The Reporter examines legislative developments, significant federal and state court cases, judicial doctrines, litigation strategies, the lives and careers of prominent women jurists, the legal profession, and other areas of law or public policy relating to women's rights.

The Rutgers Race and the Law Review provides a forum for scholarship and dialogue on race, ethnicity, and the law. Established in 1996, it is the second journal in the country to focus on the broad spectrum of multicultural issues. It addresses the concerns of people of color and covers various types of political ideologies, philosophies, and religions. Of special interests are treaties, agreements, and laws promulgated among different nations and the impact they have on people of color. Consequently, the Race Review will cover international as well as national topics of race and the law.

Most staff members of the Race Review are selected through a writing competition, and evaluation is based on writing and analytical skills. Interested applicants may also join by submitting an article suitable for publication in the Race Review.
