BROWN UNIVERSITY JOSE

Offering approximately 2,000 courses each year in more than 40 academic departments, Brown attracts, challenges, and cultivates independent thinkers with the power and drive to create personally meaningful lives. Located in historic Providence, Rhode Island and founded in 1764, Brown University is the seventh-oldest college in the United States. Brown is an independent, coeducational Ivy League institution comprising undergraduate and graduate programs, plus the Alpert Medical School, School of Public Health, School of Engineering, and the School of Professional Studies. LOCATION

KNOWN FOR Brown is a research university that regards the creation of knowledge as one of its fundamental missions. Students work at the cutting edge of research in their fields and collaborate with colleagues across disciplines and around the world to address society’s biggest challenges. The University has strengthened all aspects of its research infrastructure in the past decade. Among its many achievements are its investment in high-performance computing, the creation of a School of Public Health and a School of Engineering, the opening of the Cogut Center for the Humanities, and the opening of the Institute for Computational and Experimental Mathematics, the only mathematics research institute funded by the National Science Foundation in New England.

PUBLIC HEALTH Brown’s Public Health Program became the Brown University School of Public Health in July of The School is the natural evolution of ten years of growth in education and in research, with more than 200 faculty and 275 undergraduate and graduate students, and over $50 million in annual external research funding in The Brown University School of Public health takes a “lifelong health” approach to improving people’s lives. It begins before conception, through research on environmental exposures that affect fertility and cause birth defects. It continues through the prime of life: public health at Brown targets the behavioral choices that threaten well-being— tobacco and substance abuse, obesity, risky sexual behaviors—and encourage wellness and healthy aging—physical activity, nutrition, injury prevention. And at the end of life, Brown researchers advocate for a patient-centered, research-based approach to terminal illness that considers a person’s values and beliefs. This work has an impact on people around the world thanks to partnerships forged locally and globally, from Providence’s South Side to South Africa.
