[Recommend program to friends/colleagues?] I think that for the value and quality of the program, Rutgers is an excellent choice for pursuing an MBA. The Pharmaceutical Management program, sponsored by eight big pharma companies, is especially appealing for those pursuing a career in the pharmaceutical industry.--Marketing
The school offers a course called Interfunctional Consulting in the two terms of the second year. The whole course is a team consulting project for existing companies in the New Jersey area.

Rutgers Business School provides a very strong traditional business school curriculum to all of its MBA students. However, I chose Rutgers becuase of its specialized program in pharmaceutical management. This program is designed and taught by executives from numerous New Jersey-based pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. This program has far exceeded my original expectations and has prepared me well to continue my career within the pharmaceutical industry.--Marketing
For those who have a fair amount of job experience behind them, Rutgers is a good value for the money. The core curriculm and the professors who taught those core classes surpassed my expectations.--Consulting
