Welcome to the Rutgers University Policy Library

This Policy Library is maintained by University Ethics & Compliance (UEC). We manage all functions of policy management for official University Policies including developing, updating, reviewing, and retiring policies.

Rutgers University aims to ensure a robust policy program that is accessible and meets the unique needs of our beloved community as well as the public. We are guided by the University’s Policy on Policies.

If you are in the process of drafting a new policy, revising an existing policy, or reviewing policies in order to make policy recommendations, please contact the Policy Inbox at policy@uec.rutgers.edu.
