中文介绍

伦斯勒理工学院（RPI）是美国历史最悠久的技术研究大学，位于纽约州特洛伊市。它还有另外两个校区，分别位于纽约州哈特福德和康涅狄格州格罗顿

它由前纽约州参议员斯蒂芬·范·伦斯勒和教育家兼地质学家阿莫斯·伊顿于1824年创立

该大学在工程、科学、建筑、人文、艺术和社会科学学院以及拉里管理学院为学生提供超过145个学士、硕士和博士课程。它还提供信息技术和网络科学的跨学科学位

座右铭是“为什么不改变世界？”RPI培养了一种发现和创新的精神。该大学的教员包括国家科学基金会总统教员研究员、国家工程院和国家科学院的成员

RPI的研究活动集中在五个关键领域：生物技术和生命科学；计算科学与工程；纳米技术和先进材料；能源、环境和智能系统；以及媒体、艺术、科学和技术

著名的RPI校友包括工程师George Washington Gale Ferris，Jr.，他于1893年为芝加哥世界哥伦布博览会建造了第一个摩天轮；大卫·L·诺布尔，软盘的发明者；以及布鲁克林大桥的总工程师Washington Roebling

该大学的创办目标之一是将科学和技术发现应用于“……生活的共同目的”。这是一种至今仍在证明的哲学，RPI向许多后来建造运河、道路、桥梁和摩天大楼的毕业生宣称了这一点

英文介绍

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) is America’s oldest technological research university, located in the city of Troy, New York. It also has two additional campuses, in Hartford, New York, and in Groton, Connecticut.

It was founded by a former New York State Senator, Stephen Van Rensselaer, and the educator and geologist, Amos Eaton, in 1824.

The university offers students over 145 programmes at bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral levels across schools of Engineering, Science, Architecture, Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences, and the Lally School of Management. It also offers an interdisciplinary degree in Information Technology and Web Science.

With the motto ‘Why not change the world?’ RPI fosters a spirit of discovery and innovation. Among the university’s faculty members are National Science Foundation Presidential Faculty Fellows, and members of the National Academy of Engineering, and the National Academy of Sciences.

RPI’s research activity focusses around five key areas: biotechnology and life sciences; computational science and engineering; nanotechnology and advanced materials; energy, the environment, and smart systems; and media, arts, science and technology.

Notable RPI alumni include the engineer George Washington Gale Ferris, Jr., who in 1893 built the first Ferris Wheel for the Chicago World's Columbian Exposition; David L Noble, inventor of the floppy disk; and Washington Roebling, chief engineer of the Brooklyn Bridge.

One of the university’s founding aims was to apply science and technological discoveries to “...the common purposes of life.” It's a philosophy still in evidence today with RPI laying claim to a great many graduates who have gone on to construct canals, roads, bridges and skyscrapers.
