Project Description
As part of RIT's campus outreach to other countries, the new Global Village houses students from abroad as well as students who participate in international Co-op programs in apartment-style housing. The multiple building complex is organized around a central courtyard, designed to provide a space to promote outdoor activity. Supporting RIT's initiative to create state-of-the-art housing, dining and lifestyle options, the Village features student amenities such as a restaurant, convenience store, copy center, mail/package facilities, and a fitness center, creating an urban feel for the complex.
