Mathematics Department - New Telephone Numbers

New Telephone Numbers
as of November 10, 2008



    On Monday, November 10, 2008 the Department of Mathematics at Rutgers University in New Brunswick upgraded to a VoIP extension-based telephone system. The main number for the department is:
732-445-2390
or 5-2390 if dialed from the New Brunswick campus

    This page contains information specifically designed to help those calling from outside the Department. We have already updated our Department pages for Faculty, Staff, and Graduate Students with their correct extensions. Alternatively, you can search through our Administrative and Staff directory, which contains the extensions and room numbers for the Department's various offices.


    In the event that someone calls one of the Department's numbers that are no longer in service, the line will continue to ring without connecting. If you have come to this page because you were unable to get through to someone on a direct line like you used to, please be aware that most Faculty have retained the last four digits of their old phone number as their extension under the new system. Exceptions are PTL's, some annual positions, as well as faculty administrative offices. Please observe the following example:

The following example holds true for most Faculty, but not Staff or Graduate Students
e.g.  732-445-1234   →   732-445-2390 x1234
If you are attempting to reach someone for whom the above example does not work,
try reaching them through the Directory.
Dial732-445-2390 x2
You will need to wait a few seconds before connecting to the Directory,
and then you will need to dial the first three letters of the person's last name.
e.g.  (For last name of Smith)  732-445-2390 x2   764
Though the previous examples allow you to find someone specific, if you are trying to contact a particular program within the Department, you can reach them through the Program Menu.
Dial732-445-2390 x1
You will then be able to choose from one of the options enumerated below.
Each office is listed next to the number to be dialed.
1.  Undergraduate 2.  Graduate 3.  Mathematical Finance Program
4.  Chair Office 5.  Business 6.  Center for Mathematical Sciences Research
e.g.  (For the Chair Office)  732-445-2390 x1   4


    We do apologize for any inconvenience this may cause; however, the upgrade was necessary, and we are doing everything we can to ensure that it is proceeding as smoothly as possible. If there are any issues, or if you experience difficulty of any kind, please let us know by sending an e-mail to help@math.rutgers.edu.
