“The level of connectedness we have with our faculty is invaluable.” STUDY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT IN CAMDEN LOCALLY
HAVE AN IMPACT GLOBALLY
Community development takes place at the intersection of increasingly complex globalized economic, political, legal, and social systems. Our interdisciplinary program brings together the perspectives of public policy, law, social science and the private sector.
We offer an interdisciplinary program in Public Affairs, Business, and Law with a focus on social capital, social justice, and social entrepreneurship leading to a Ph.D. with significant applied skills and policy expertise.
This is where it all starts to create your career in academia, public service, nonprofit advocacy, or public policy, centered on a commitment to making a difference in the world. Both international and domestic training in community development are available.
Rutgers-Camden has a unique offering of campus opportunities and resources including the School of Law, Rutgers–Camden Technology Campus business incubator, Senator Walter Rand Institute for Public Affairs, Center for Strategic Urban and Community Leadership, affiliation with the LEAP Charter Schools, the Center for Urban Research and Education and top scholars and staff who are deeply focused on the issues of urban redevelopment, community development, immigration, international development, public health, entrepreneurship, and urban education.
As the southernmost of the three regional campuses that comprise Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey – an AAU institution noted worldwide for its scholarship – Rutgers–Camden is an urban research campus with a strong commitment to civic engagement with our community.
