Programs for Students

Undergraduate students explore and engage with scholarly research. Through peer, staff, and faculty mentorship, students develop research skills in a formal research setting and present their findings universitywide at the annual symposium. 

Our one-credit seminars offer first-year students the chance to experience the excitement of original research as faculty members share their curiosity, their intellectual passion, and development of new ideas and fields of knowledge.

Undergraduate and graduate students receive guidance and support during all stages of the application process for major national fellowships and awards.

Intended to complement any major of study, IDEA empowers undergraduate students to explore their interests, apply their creativity, enhance their skillset, and learn about different fields of study that can help them determine their career path.

LSAMP provides academic support and specialized advising for undergraduate students from historically underrepresented groups interested in non-medical STEM professions.

Each year, the most outstanding juniors and seniors are nominated to join Phi Beta Kappa, the nation's oldest and most prestigious liberal arts honor society.

The Office of Academic Services assists students as they navigate the dual pressures of being a student at top-level research university and a Division I student-athlete.

Whether students are seeking academic support through peer tutoring, academic coaching, or writing assistance, or simply looking for a space in which to study, the Learning Centers offer it all.

We serve as the policy and advocacy hub for transfer, non-traditional, and adult learners, to support student success efforts via direct outreach and coordination of access to academic resources at Rutgers–New Brunswick.
