Admissions & Aid
A premier STEM-focused university in the heart of Massachusetts, WPI is known for what it does best: delivering an education that is project-based, globally engaged, and built on its founding approach of theory and practice.
Our students are scientists, engineers, entrepreneurs, scholars, musicians, adventurers, and above all else, doers. Being a WPI student means following passions and bringing ideas—and futures—to life. WPI students don’t fit molds; rather, they break them and rebuild their own.
More importantly, they graduate fully prepared to step into challenging roles because they have powerful knowledge and know how to apply it.
