ROCHESTER INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Founded in 1829, Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) is a diverse and collaborative community of engaged, socially conscious, and intellectually curious minds. RIT is located in suburban Rochester, N.Y., the third largest city in New York state. RIT's campus is about six miles from downtown Rochester where the student can enjoy the city's entertainment, cultural, and employment opportunities. Rochester is large enough to provide opportunities you might expect in a bigger city, yet small and friendly enough to be inviting and accessible. RIT's mission is to shape the future and improve the world through creativity and innovation. As an engaged, intellectually curious, and socially conscious community, it leverages the power of technology, the arts, and design for the greater good. Through creativity and innovation, and an intentional blending of technology, the arts and design, RTI provides exceptional individuals with a wide range of academic opportunities, including a leading research program and an internationally recognized education for deaf and hard-of-hearing students. Every academic program at RIT offers some form of experiential learning. RIT offers more than 300 undergraduate and graduate programs in areas as diverse as art and design, science, engineering, business, environmental studies, medical and health sciences, computing, and the liberal arts.
