Our Campus

Our campus is located in Smithfield thanks to the founder of Tupperware — Earl Silas Tupper. When we outgrew our location in downtown Providence, Tupper donated 435 acres of land that became our home in Smithfield. In the fall of 2024, our campus expanded with the opening of the Business Leadership Entrepreneurship Center, a 250,000-square-foot building gifted to Bryant by Fidelity Investments. 

With peaceful groves, gently rolling lawns, cutting-edge facilities, and a history of innovation, Bryant has become a cornerstone of the local community. Our athletic events, cultural performances, and many of our symposia with visiting scholars are open to the public. In 2022, Safewise ranked Smithfield No. 14 on its list of “The 50 Safest College Towns in America.” 

Bryant’s campus offers everything students need to thrive. From the convenience of a local RIPTA bus to nearby shops, parks, and restaurants, Smithfield is the perfect place to call home during your college journey.
