Overview

The Food Science course of Rutgers University strives to include both traditional and non-traditional graduate students so the number of matriculated part-time students is significant. Most graduate courses are offered after 4:30 p.m. to accommodate working (part-time) students and corporate-based students. Interactive two-way videoconferencing is available on a limited basis to some corporate partners.

Key facts

The programme offers students the opportunity to study in an area of the country that is rich in resources for learning and research. More than a third of the 100 major food companies in the United States have headquarters, manufacturing, or research facilities in New Jersey. This gives students the unique advantage of being able to interact with one of the most important segments of the manufacturing sector in the state.
