Extension: About Extension

Information concerning affiliated off-campus research centers, funding, similar research, and faculty can be found at the Rutgers Cooperative Extension Office:

"Rutgers Cooperative Extension (RCE) helps the diverse population of New Jersey adapt to a rapidly changing society and improve their lives through an educational process that uses science-based knowledge. We focus on issues and needs relating to agriculture and the environment; management of natural resources; food safety, quality, and health; family stability; economic security; and youth development.

RCE is an integral part of Cook College, the New Jersey Agriculture Experiment Station, and Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, and funded by the United States Department of Agriculture, the State of New Jersey, and County Boards of Chosen Freeholders.

Rutgers Cooperative Extension reaches people through meetings, workshops, conferences, publications, electronic communication, distance learning and mass media. Thousands of New Jerseyans are reached through the combined efforts of professionals and volunteers who provide educational programs in all counties throughout the state. See the County Offices page for the Rutgers Cooperative Extension office in your county."
