Both faculty and students benefit directly from formal and informal interinstitutional cooperative arrangements. Ties to UMDNJ and NJIT have been of particular benefit to Rutgers students because joint programs provide students with enhanced access to resources, primarily in health sciences and applied science fields. Joint degree programs have benefited students on all three campuses. For example, there are eight joint graduate programs in New Brunswick. On the Newark Campus, cooperation has gone further, as a number of arts and sciences departments have created federated departments with NJIT faculty to promote more interaction and increased curricular options for students. Articulation agreements with all of the county colleges and our arrangements with state colleges for cooperation on specific programs, such as the agreements between the Richard Stockton College of New Jersey and Rutgers-Newark in criminal justice, between The College of New Jersey and Rutgers-Newark in criminal justice, between NJIT and Rutgers-Newark for joint doctoral programs in applied physics and mathematical sciences, and between UMDNJ and Rutgers-Camden in physical therapy, increase students' access to our institution and allow for nonduplicative use of existing resources. These kinds of ties will be expanded and strengthened in the future. In the national and international arena, interinstitutional cooperation is also critical for our development. From study abroad programs for undergraduates to projects abroad on local issues (such as democracy in Poland) to multi-million dollar international science programs (such as the Kellogg Foundation sponsored mid-Atlantic regional consortium on food, agriculture, marine and environmental sciences), students and faculty benefit from ties with colleagues around the world. With rapid increases in electronic communications, the need for an international perspective on global issues increases dramatically. Interinstitutional collaborations contribute significantly to global understanding. |
