With more than 100 programs across five colleges, Bradley offers distinctive areas of study such as business, cybersecurity, engineering, game design, nursing, physical therapy, and robotics.

The U.S. News and World Report 2024 Best Colleges List ranked Bradley No. 4 for Best Value in Illinois and No. 1 for its mechanical engineering and undergraduate engineering programs in the state. Princeton Review named Bradley's game design program No. 12 in the nation. Bradley students participate in over 200 student organizations - or start their own. We boast the nation's most-winning speech program, as well as Greek life (including six of the Divine 9), 11 NCAA Division I sports, student leadership, community service, and over a dozen diverse religious organizations. Off campus, Peoria has something for everyone, with coffee shops, theaters, multicultural restaurants, public parks, local sports franchises, bookstores, shopping, and more. We are also centrally located, just a few hours from Chicago, St. Louis, and Indianapolis.
