Policy Applicability

Effective July 1, 2013, The New Jersey Medical and Health Sciences Education Restructuring Act provided for most schools and units of UMDNJ to be transferred to Rutgers. As a result of the ongoing process of integrating policies and procedures, you may see changes to this website and the policies. It is important to refer to Rutgers Biomedical and Health Sciences (RBHS) policies for changes. Please also refer to Rutgers’ policies and procedures for policies that apply throughout the University, including Rutgers Health. University wide policies related to Compliance, HIPAA, and Risk Management can be found on the Rutgers University Policy Library, along with additional information about the Rutgers-UMDNJ Integration.

All members of the Rutgers community, including students, faculty and staff of Rutgers Health, should read and understand the policies contained within the University Policy Library. It is important to note, over the course of the integration with UMDNJ, several policies were migrated from UMDNJ, or remain from Rutgers, that do apply to all students, faculty, and staff. Here you will find information about the applicability of each policy in the RBHS Policy Library and the University Policy Library. Please note: if there is a conflict between applicability as expressed in the policy, and applicability as set forth in this website, applicability as expressed in the policy governs. 

Questions?

Please find the list of all policies in the Rutgers University Policy Library guide. Contact the Office of the Chancellor with any questions.
