PI, founded in 1824, is a private, technical institution.  Programs are offered through the Schools of Architecture, Engineering, Humanities and Social Sciences, Management, and Science.  Its 260-acre campus is located in Troy, 15 miles from Albany.

The oldest degree-granting technological research university in North America, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) was founded in 1824 “for the purpose of instructing persons in the application of science to the common purposes of life.” Students pursue undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral degrees as offered in Architecture, Engineering, Humanities and Social Sciences, Information Technology (IT), Management and Technology, and the Sciences.  As a pioneer in interactive learning, Rensselaer has a long tradition of providing real-world, hands-on educational experiences to students.  Courses cut across academic disciplines and encourage students to conduct research, work in teams, and solve complex technical problems.
