Undergraduate Admissions

Really, it’s easier if we just show you →

Take the theories you learn in the classroom and put them into practice through project work starting from your first days on campus—there’s a reason our motto translates to theory and practice, after all. 

Travel to one of our 50+ project centers around the world to collaborate with a local community to address a problem. You’ll learn just as much from them as they will from you, and your work can have a lasting impact—not just on the community, but on yourself. 

Whatever your field of interest, take advantage of research opportunities starting from your first year at WPI, and learn from and collaborate with renowned faculty. 

Pursue your passion in music while earning your robotics degree, take center stage in the lab and the theatre, or perfect your skills in both underwater hockey and business. 

We’re focused on providing you with the education, experiences, connections, resources, and support necessary to achieve your goals both before and after graduation. 

And that includes our academic schedule. Instead of two semesters, our academic year is split into four seven-week terms, giving you the chance to immerse yourself in your coursework.
