The distinct identity of Rutgers–New Brunswick is created by the eclectic atmosphere across five campus centers or neighborhoods. The Raritan River divides the large campus that spans the city of New Brunswick and the town of Piscataway, New Jersey. A free intercampus bus service keeps the Rutgers community connected between locations. The five campus locations offer everything from a pulsing, bustling environment to a tree-lined, classically collegiate campus feel.
