A Renowned Degree and a Transformative Experience
Students in this program are part of a special “cohort” and therefore complete the entire curriculum as a unified group. This format allows participants to develop relationships that extend beyond the classroom, providing ongoing opportunities for networking, support, and personal friendships. In addition, the collaborative relationship between students and faculty enhances the academic experience.
An Administrative Point-of-Contact from Rensselaer’s Office of Student Affairs takes care of all logistical and support needs. This allows students to maintain focus on their studies while balancing their responsibilities and interests.
