Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute is a private research university located in the city of Troy, New York. RPI, as it’s commonly called, was founded in 1824 and is one of the oldest technological universities in the States. Ranked moderately among the top 50 schools in USA, Rensselaer is a well known college for Electrical, Computer and Financial courses. However, it isn't too popular among Indians; the only ones who end up here, do so because of it's proximity to New York, and nothing else.
