William Peace University’s historic downtown Raleigh location gives students a unique advantage: renowned internships and immersive learning opportunities just steps from campus. With notable sites like the North Carolina State Capitol and the Triangle’s many thriving organizations, such as SAS Institute and WakeMed, Peace students are well positioned to build their résumés and explore all Raleigh has to offer.
