The Rutgers University-Newark Office of Global Initiatives and Experiential Learning's goal:
- To provide resources and services for faculty and staff who are facilitating experiential learning and study away programs.
- To implement transformative initiatives that encourage students to integrate field and study away experiences with their academic plan.
- To construct local to global community-engaged initiatives anchored in Newark and surrounding communities.
- To design, implement and assess coursework, co-curricular programs and experiential learning initiatives that reflect the inter-and intra-cultural identities and interests of our students, faculty, and staff.
