The BRIDGE

BRIDGE stands for Building Relationships, Intercultural Dialogue and Global Engagement. The BRIDGE represents an integrated approach to international and intercultural engagement for JWU’s diverse community and multiple campuses. The BRIDGE offers educational programs, cultural events and social activities that support the university's goal of practicing local, national and global citizenship.

The BRIDGE

  • aims to unite students from all backgrounds
  • supports students in acclimating to campus life
  • dismantles cultural barriers and encourages cultural exchange
  • builds global learning and intercultural competencies both within and beyond the classroom
  • provides opportunities to socialize and network

Designed as part of this approach, the BRIDGE Center on the Providence Campus is located in the Xavier Complex, and serves as a place that promotes an active learning environment for JWU students, faculty and staff, with an emphasis on cross-cultural awareness and understanding.
