All Rutgers University–Camden faculty are globally recognized leaders in teaching, research and are frequently called upon as presenters at regional, national and international conferences.


Our students collaborate with outstanding faculty who are engaged in cutting-edge research, including projects funded by federal agencies and national organizations, such as the National Institute of Justice, Bureau of Justice Assistance, and Arnold Ventures. Students can also become involved in these projects through independent studies, working with faculty to publish articles in top peer reviewed journals and present their work at conferences across the United States
