As Rhode Island's only public community college, CCRI offers associate degrees and certificates across fields including nursing, business, engineering, and liberal arts, with nursing and health sciences programs being particularly prominent. The Warwick campus provides essential student facilities including a library, computer labs, and athletic facilities, while serving primarily as a commuter institution with no on-campus housing.
