Rutgers University-Newark is the
Newark campus of
Rutgers University. It was formerly known as the
University of Newark, which was merged with Rutgers in 1946 by an act of the New Jersey legislature. The University of Newark was established in 1935, growing out from the consolidation of five educational institutions in Newark—namely, Dana College, the Newark Institute of Arts and Sciences, the Seth Boyden School of Business, the Mercer Beasley School of Law, and the New Jersey Law School. Today, the 35 acre (14 hectare) Newark Campus consists of the following degree-granting divisions:
- Newark College of Arts and Sciences
- University College-Newark
- Graduate School–Newark
- College of Nursing
- Rutgers Business School-Newark
- School of Criminal Justice
- Rutgers School of Law-Newark
US News & World Report ranked Rutgers-Newark the most diverse university campus in the United States. [
