As the hub for several booming industries, the home to a global community and “America’s friendliest city” according to Travel + Leisure magazine, Nashville combines history and hospitality with diverse culture and growth. Tennessee’s capital also is an international destination for the arts, entrepreneurship, and scientific research, thereby attracting world-renowned scholars to Vanderbilt and the broader community. In turn, it’s no surprise that many students choose to call Music City home, even after their time as Vanderbilt students comes to an end. Major regional industries include music and entertainment, tourism, printing and publishing, technology, higher education, automobile production and health care management.
