Throughout the period of protracted underfunding
of higher education in New Jersey which began in the late eighties,
Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey has compared very
favorably to its national peer institutions in terms of cost
effectiveness. Rutgers successfully addressed the challenge of
restricted resources by implementing a series of innovative cost-saving
initiatives while maintaining quality. Through the Strategic
Resource and Opportunity Analysis, $4 million in administrative
cost savings was reallocated to priority academic projects. By
increasing collaboration with other institutions, Rutgers leverages
its resources to offer cutting-edge research programs. Through
administrative restructuring and new approaches to the delivery
of services, Rutgers serves its student population better than
ever before. Continued implementation of the strategic plan will
further enhance the university's academic quality even as costs
are contained.  |
