创意资本

Providence balances the arts, 文化, 食物, history and excitement of a major city with the intimate feel and manageable scale of a small college town. It's been noted as one of "America's Best Food Cities," "美国人最喜欢的城市," and GQ Magazine once called it "美国最酷的城市." Our 180-acre campus offers a quiet, suburban oasis that's still only minutes from the vibrant city center.
