I think our school is best known for being an accepting university. If you sit on the main quad for just 10 minutes, you could watch as hundreds of extremeley diverse students walk by. Students are URI are open to new things and are welcoming to people who appear different from themselves.

Jamie

Really known for our Pharmacy, Nursing, and Marine fields because we offer great programs in both as they recieve a ton of funding and have great facilities on and off campus. There is the Bay Campus right on the Narragansett Bay for Marine studies. We've made a lot of progress as a school in regards to upgrading and improving our technologies, buildings, academics and social sphere. I think URI is also known for how much we've changed for the better from our past.
