The Division of Student Experience has been nationally recognized as one of the Most Promising Places to Work in Student Affairs awarded by College Student Educators International (ACPA) and the EDU Ledger. Each year, only a select number of colleges and universities nationwide receive this distinction, underscoring its highly competitive and selective nature. This year, RPI was honored as one of just 30 institutions to earn this award.

In February two RPI undergraduate students, Nyati Misra '27 (BMED) and John Weller '27 (AERO), placed in the Top 4 out of 72 schools nationwide! They represented RPI with exceptional analytical rigor, professionalism, and ethical depth. Throughout the competition, they demonstrated remarkable composure, clarity of thought, and principled decision-making, serving as outstanding ambassadors for RPI. Dr. Azita Hirsa served as their faculty advisor for this competition. To learn more about the event, please reach out to Dr. Azita Hirsa at hirssa3@rpi.edu.
